We sat in the second row, and thought it was fine. I believe that as long as you just focus on the screen and on the ride, and try not to see how it works and how the seats move, you'll have a great time. I knew going into the ride that the first row was supposed to be the best, but we couldn't get the first row, and I noticed the dangling feet as soon as the seats moved. However, once the screen was on and I was focusing on the ride, I didn't even notice anything else.
