I've been going to Solano since I was kid. Definately has an upgrade with digital films and bigger screens, with same old drive in experience.
My complain is mostly they seem to be wishy washy about double features. We went on tues because it's low price. My experiences is they seem to chase an extra $6 per person for no reason for seeing the same screen in the same lot for so few people who would come to see a movie @ 11:30pm. At first I though we could jump lots, but he said no, pay extra. But then we realized it was the same screen,elemental and transformers. We went back to the manager and then we explain it, and he said that only certain nights are double feature, pandemic changed their business model, and they said they have people patrolling for tickets for the second movie. When transformers started, nothing happened and the entire duration of the movie, no one knocked. No one was patrolling anything. So I felt like we were just taken an extra $6 per person for no reason. When 11:30 rolled around, only 1/6 of the 9:30 cars were in the lot. Looking at other reviews, it's seems I'm not alone on this. Definately check the website before you go.
At the same time, 12 per person is average price for one movie, so it's like 2 for the price of one.
Also, do not see too many movies that are super dark. It's very hard to see details. Elemental was pretty much a perfect movie as it was colorful and bright to see everything. With the latest trend of filming darker scenes in live action, Transformers has some in the beginning.
It these reason, I will only go once in awhile.
