Worst experience ever - Illegal discrimination  1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

While at the concessions I was a victim of rude discrimination and mockery by an employee named Marcel and a fellow female employee.
When I complained the "manager" literally put the blame on me without asking for a full story and without allowing me to confront the above mentioned employees.
"Operation Specialist" Adam Rose was extremely rude and literally blamed me for being victim of discrimination!
I am taking legal steps to resolve that, but also I would like to warn people about the kind of place and employees one will find if one goes.
Terrible experience - Don't go if you want to be treated with respect; employees are rude, they discriminate and when we complained, they protected each other without taking an serious steps to avoid discrimination which by the way, is absolutely illegal under any circumstance in this country.
Beware!

AWESOME  5 Star Rating - World class

channelside imax is Spectacular to say the least. Enormous, spacious seating, magnificent theater, with unbelievable sound quality. the room is well designed and the movies are completely enjoyable. when a big movie comes out, i head to channelside to catch it on imax if they are playing it.

PROS: amazing theater
CONS: not cheap

Imax  4 Star Rating - Very good

The Channelside Imax is the second Imax theater in tampa besides the one at Mosi. This is a great way to see new release movies that are even more breathtaking in the Imax surround screen. It really makes you feel like you are inside that movie itself. THe tickets are a little more expensive than other theaters but the effects are worth it.

Not Impressed  2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

I was disappointed to find out after I drove to this theater that it had been rented out of the day. They offered a free ticket to the movie the following day but we could not use the ticket. It would have been nice to know that when I called to get the show times earlier that day.

Great Theater  4 Star Rating - Very good

Channelside houses the only Tampa Bay area Imax theatre aswell as 9 traditional widescreen theatres. The imax theatre is priced at about $11 and features a gigantic screen with an impressive sound system. Not all films that are shown are filmed in Imax 3D so that effect is sometimes lost in the showing. Has very cramped seating but provides an excellent show.
