The establishment, which originally opened its doors on November 28th, 2001, underwent a significant transformation in 2021. Following the rebuild, it celebrated a grand reopening. The photo section now proudly features an updated image capturing the venue’s fresh look and the grand opening ad.
Sameric Theatres: These cinematic havens, scattered throughout the area, found themselves in a whirlwind of change. Their fate shifted as they were acquired by UAB II, Inc. and placed under the watchful eye of Creative Entertainment Consultants Ltd. during this period.
UA’s Reclamation: However, the winds of fate were fickle. By 1994, the Sameric theaters were reclaimed by UA (United Artists), like a plot twist in a suspenseful film.
New Management: The year 1995 ushered in a fresh era. New management stepped onto the stage, their vision set on revitalizing these cinematic gems. Yet, despite their efforts, the curtains eventually fell in 1996, leaving the theaters silent once more.
The Rebirth: But wait! Just when it seemed like the final credits had rolled, a glimmer of hope emerged. On September 12th, 1997, the theaters were reborn as the Cinema Grill—a place where movie magic and culinary delights intertwined.
The Final Act: Alas, every story has its closing chapter. On March 31st, 2001, the Cinema Grill dimmed its lights for the last time, leaving behind memories etched in celluloid and the hearts of moviegoers. (rewritten by AI)
