    Truly great movie theater complex with a wide selection of goods at the concessions, all the top releases available to watch and also vertical seating within the movie theaters themselves. Some of the audience members were clapping along during the intro song, so it probably is a local Michigan favorite. Recommended!

    Henry at the food counter was awesome! Go Henry go! I could smell the bathroom just by passing by. Some of the drinks were out. My theater seats didn't recline.

    They have a spacious parking lot and it was full! There was a long line waiting to purchase tickets. They need more staff to service those who don't purchase seats online. Only one self-service machine to purchase tickets was working, so there was a line there, too! The theatre is clean and the space flows nicely. I did miss having a reclining seat for my movie. The sound and screen was fine. I'm wondering if they offer reclining seats at this location. It was my first time here.

    UPDATE: Remaining Issues since last visit are: The popcorn REMAINS a 3.5 out of 5 (has an odd oily aftertaste). The seating in the theaters I attended are the classic stadium seating, which now seems very antiquated in the age of recliners and VIP Seating for couples. The concession line is still WAAAAY too long, and doesn't move as quickly as it once did. New issues: Other moviegoers who are CONSTANTLY on their mobile phones during films (and previews). Noisy moviegoers, who seemingly forget that we are NOT in their F'ing living room, so they should stop talking during the movie (no one needs to hear your "hot take" on what just happend, Steve!). This location (and many others, tbh) would fair better if they actually sent their employees into the theaters multiple times throughout a features (you know, like they USED TO DO) to ensure that people are not ruining the movie going experience for others.

    Went to Mjr to see the upcoming Elemental movie screening, and it didn't disappoint the pretzel bites and cheese we tasty. The facility was clean and cozy definitely will be going here for my next movie night!

    Monday afternoon movie!

    No complaints, this is a nice movie theatre. I like that you don't have to pre-pick your seats, that's not a trend I like. It's clean inside, the movie prices are reasonable - especially if it's a matinee. The snack prices are high - but that's every theatre. At least you can get popcorn refills - if you're willing to run out during the movie - which we are sometimes if we are really needing (Hah!) more popcorn. The seats are comfortable, the bathrooms are plentiful and clean and you can pre-buy your tickets or get them when you arrive. What's not to like?

    This is a great spot to spend the evening doing something low key after a late night celebrating and ringing in the new year during quarantine or any particular weekend. No drinks or food allowed during the movies during the pandemic to allow patrons to keep their masks on during the entirety of the movie. There's an Emagine right by my house, but I prefer to watch movies either at the Main art theater or at this MJR location in Troy. There's less tension, mayhem and stress at this theater than at Emagine. It's not a fancy theater, but their chairs are fairly comfy for sitting during a 2+ hour movie. Patrons can easily sit spaced apart in these theaters.

    I really don't understand the hype of MJR, despite having a catchy "theme song" - clap clap clap-. The prices are pretty comparable to other theaters that have way more amenities and so MJR just feels really outdated. I hate saying that because I know that this, like Emagine, is a Michigan chain, but we are in the 21st century and as an avid-movie goer, I've come to expect a standard level to my movie-going experience that MJR falls short in in multiple categories. Firstly, and probably most importantly, they don't have recliners. They still have those standard rocking chairs that don't have a lot of padding and become uncomfortable very quickly and take you out of the movie you're trying to enjoy. Secondly, they don't have reserved seating?! Absolutely atrocious. Gone are the days where I'm willing to / have the time to get to a movie theater well in advance to claim a good seat and sitting in a terrible seat also takes you out of the movie IMMEDIATELY. Thirdly, like I mentioned earlier, their pricing isn't even that much cheaper by any means from Emagine, so I would much rather go to a comfortable Emagine that contains all the amenities that MJR is lacking and more. The only thing I can think about that might put MJR slightly better is that MJR has a kid's pack concessions box where you can get a small popcorn, bag of fruit gummies, and small drink for a very affordable price. But I feel like I'm the exception to the rule here. I personally am not a huge fan of popcorn so this amount of popcorn is more than plenty for me, even as an adult, and the kid's pack is surely not enough for me to come here given all the other things they lack. I've tried MJR, and only this Troy location, a handful of times just in those off chances when other times at Emagine didn't work with my schedule and every time has been a let down here. The only reason they aren't getting a lower rating from me is because they are Michigan-based. Do yourself and your body a favor and go to Emagine locations instead. Emagine is way greater than MJR by leaps and bounds!

    Woohoo!!

    We headed over to Detroit for a premiere of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. I think only for a Wizarding World of Harry Potter movie would we drive almost 3 hours. That said, if we lived anywhere near this theatre, it would be OUR PLACE. Things I loved: * The staff is extremely friendly (thank you!) * I love the wide range of movie promotional materials for photo opps (especially when you are in cosplay. Just saying). * The seats in theater 8 were large and comfy. BTW, this particular theater is ENORMOUS. The screen is the biggest I've ever seen, and the rows have at least 30 seats in them. * Following that, there is enough space between rows that you can sit with your legs crossed, and won't have to move an inch for someone walking past. * Clean, spacious bathrooms * Decent pricing Things I didn't love: * While there was seemingly a lot of handicap parking, they were ALL FULL. Obviously, more is needed. That was a very long and painful walk in. * It's so far away from where we live in Kalamazoo (hint hint!) * Psychedelic carpet. Uff da. If you're anywhere near Troy and want to see a movie, this is your theater!

    They really need to do something about the smell. It smells like the zoo in the restroom and theaters.

As the girl was complying with the request,, the manager snapped at her again to let her know she could take it out to her car if she couldn't follow the rules (that she was following).

No idea if it was little man syndrome, or what, but he had a terrible attitude; he was huffing and blowing and tsk-ing about everything, even though there was nothing wrong happening. Not sure who he was mad at, but taking it out on the customers and making them feel uncomfortable because he wants to huff and pout about things isn't ok. Not to mention his fingernails were too long and they were dirty. Food service workers should not have dirty fingernails.

I saw that it was playing at the Palladium at a more convenient time, so I decided to there.. I'd actually forgotten about this theater. It was odd to me that the theater is on the 4th floor; I wasn't sure I was in the right place, and because I was there at an odd time (early Friday afternoon), there weren't any other people around. The young man at the concession stand (where they were also selling tickets) was very kind and courteous; he even asked if the amount of butter on my popcorn was ok. The theater area seems very upscale. There's a piano playing, and just a nice ambiance. The theaters themselves have the reclining seats and are comfortable. It was a little chilly in there (I was the only patron for a while, and then one other person entered the theater, so it was basically a private showing!), so I was glad to have my jacket as a blanket. The only thing I really didn't like was the parking situation. Yes, Birmingham gives you 2 hours free parking in the structures, but the movie runs just under that amount of time, and by the time you walk to & from the theater, you're over the 2 hours and end up having to pay.
