"Always a good time. I love it here. People complain about the cost, but its all about the experience! Never had any issues with the sound in my vehicle."

"Have gone a few times and enjoy it everytime. They offer a range of movies. From classics to newer stuff. Do recommend getting a radio to play. Much easier as sometimes staff doesn't have jumpers. And have seen a few cars need it at the end of the movies. Kids do run around and planes fly over head."

"I have been to Milky Way twice so far and here's an honest review. Screen is ok, not great in daylight, but if you want better go to the cinema. The sound both times was absolutely terrible. You have tune your car radio and listen to that. That's easy, put your car in ACC (accessory mode), do not keep your engine running! Turn off your lights, as there is people behind you trying to watch a movie as well. ACC mode will NOT discharge your battery by just running the radio for 2h. The huge downside to the fm sound is that it is extremely quiet. Even after turning the volume all the way up, we can barely hear anything and this is on Acura ELS sound system which is top of the line. I tried playing with sound settings, nothing helped both times. If we ever come back I will take a portable little radio with me, but the sound will still most likely be very lacking. No other sound option, unacceptable. Be prepared, that people are morons. Running cars everywhere with lights in your face, gas fumes, kids running and screaming, golf cart crusing and giving jump starts to morons. Also once we ordered some burgers from the golf cart, they were bad, really bad. They didn't deliver beer, instead you had to walk about 5min to the concession stand, and then 5min back holding the plastic cups. Not conveninet at all. The second time, our little one wanted popcorn, but there was no golf cart service at all and the stand was closed as well. Overall this whole experience could be much better and I believe Milwaukee deserves better. I'm ok with the price, but if I want to see a movie, I will spend more and go to the cinema."

"My family has really enjoyed watching movies here since 2020. If I would have reviewed it then or last year it would have received a higher score, but things have went down hill. they used to have food available, but the last time we went it was just grossly overpriced popcorn. The biggest issue has been sound related. The broadcast on 89.1 to listen on your radio. During The Greatest Showman it sounded terrible (distorted and staticky), which is not a good thing when watching a musical. Then, more recently during Matilda the volume was so low we couldn't hear the dialog at all. Even with both my portable radio and car radio set to max. There didn't seem to be anyone around to talk to about correcting the issue so we just left. If they ever fix these issues I will probably up my rating."

"Trying to get out and do activities as a family is difficult during this hysteria. My son has never been to a drive in movie so we booked tickets on line. The drive in isn't like the large classics like the days of my youth but we had a great time. Pulling into the drive in we were informed what radio station to tune into for sound. We were directed to pull into any spot we wanted. We parked middle row center and settled in for the movie. There is on line concession ordering that brings the treats right to your vehicle. We brought our own drinks and snacks. The list of movies are not the latest releases but we had a great time and plan on going again."
