About this app

MoviePass is the nation's premier theatrical subscription service, allowing you to see movies in over 4000 theaters across the United States for one low subscription fee.

How It Works:
-Sign up for MoviePass to receive your MoviePass card. Download the MoviePass app while waiting for your card to arrive.

-Once you receive your card in the mail, use the app to search for theaters, movies and showtimes.

-Go to the theater and check into your selected showtime using the app.

-Once you have checked in your card will be activated; swipe your MoviePass card with a ticket agent or at a kiosk to get your ticket!

-For theaters that accept e-ticketing via MoviePass, reserve your same-day ticket and seat (when applicable) ahead of time from any location. No need to use your card, just present the e-ticket confirmation code at the theater's box office to get your ticket.

Ratings and reviews

I had Moviepass in 2017 or so when the deal was too good to be true. I resubscribed this past year hoping that the app would have some benefit since I go to the movies often, but if you get this app, you're basically throwing away money. The credit system is terrible and misleading. You aren't really saving anything on the initial movie cost, and when you get a ticket you're charged extra credits for a convenience fee. You're better off using whatever service your local theater offers.

Not worth it. The app uses credits to hide the obvious fact that it's merely offering consumers 1 to 1 ticket pricing. For example, you pay 23 dollars a month and you get 70 or so credits to spend during the period. What they don't tell you is that an average ticket can be 35 credits each roughly. This is not the moviepass of old and their way of doing business was never sustainable.

This app provides a legitimately awful service. It was a good deal when I got a subscription a year ago. The amount of credits they gave you were more than enough to see at least 1 movie/month, with a bit left over so you might be able to squeeze in a second movie. But the amount of credits needed to see a movie has gone up so much you can barely afford to see 1 old unpopular movie a month. Plus they charge a credit processing fee, it's a made up currency, why are they adding extra hidden fees!
