It is a free ticket, but it’s a free ticket without any kind of commitment. The showing you want to see is full? You’re really late? Skip it, go to the next one. Even if it’s not at the same theater.

The movie you want to see is $19 at the theater down the street vs $9 on the other side of town. Go to the theater down the street with the reclining seats.

We see 3-4 movies a month, MoviePass completely changed the way we think about and scheduled going to the movies. No stress.

When you head to the theatre, the cashier who takes your MoviePass will notify you if they're out of seats and MoviePass won't list the showtime as available when the theatre says they're out of seats. While you can use the walk-up approach, it's still best to make sure the showtime is open.

Basically they put the amount of the movie on a special MasterCard. You’re not guaranteed a seat until you use that card to pay for the seat.
