I have to admit, I used to live near a "Movie Tavern" which is a far better overall experience. Similar concept.
What is really annoying is how you can not swipe your credit card or order food right from your seat. The great thing about the Movie Tavern is there is tons of room between the seats and the staff rarely block your view. At the studio grill, there is not a ton of room between the rows or seats. I can not really see the Movie Grill removing seats. For me, I hope to one day see Movie Grill enhancing the overal experience.
BTW I see the negative reivews for "Theater five." I saw "unfinished business" at theater five and there were not any issues. If there was an issue it has been fixed.
