Without knowing your actual location, it is obviously not possible to tell where your closest cinema or theater is. However, if you visit the website of a large cinema or theater chain such as Regal, Cinemark, AMC, Odeon or Vue, you can enter your ZIP code, postcode or nearest city and find out which cinemas are nearby.
Purchasing or Reserving Tickets
Most theater websites give you the opportunity to reserve and/or pay for tickets online. This can save time, so you won't have to sacrifice your popcorn if you're running late! Usually, you'll just have to put your bank card into the machine and it'll print out your tickets in seconds.
You can also reserve tickets for films that haven't been released yet. This can be particularly helpful if you're looking to view a film on opening weekend, when it's likely to be very busy.
Smartphones and Applications
There are also apps available for iPhones and Android devices that can be convenient for checking the movie listings and times for your local theater.
