Great for bigger screen. There are lots of cinemarks. The one in alliance town center just 6 minutes away is good for matinee if a huge screen isnt necessary or you are saving. Matinees are 4.50$ for most and you have alliance shopping nearby as well. The Harkins theater in Southlake is awesome too; try to get into the Cine Capri for the red curtain and cool sound.
