Frequently Asked Questions
How late can you be to a movie?
Officially, there isn’t a “too late” policy at most movie theaters. Once your ticket is scanned (or if you’re using assigned seating), you’re generally free to enter the auditorium at any point during the film. However, being excessively late is, of course, disruptive to other patrons.
How late do movies usually start?
The listed showtime is usually not the actual start time of the movie itself. Typically, theaters will show 10-20 minutes of trailers and advertisements before the film begins. So, if a movie is listed for 7:00 PM, the actual movie might start closer to 7:15 or 7:20 PM.
What is the usual time for a movie?
The “usual” time for a movie varies greatly depending on the day of the week and the theater’s location. Weekday matinees often start between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM. Evening showtimes on weekdays typically begin around 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. On weekends, you’ll usually find screenings throughout the day, starting as early as 10:00 AM and running well into the late evening, with final showtimes around 9:00 PM or 10:00 PM.
In Closing
There are many ways to find movie showtimes, including online platforms, theater websites, search engines, and social media. Before you head out to see “Close” or any other film, double-check the showtimes to make sure you don’t miss the opening credits.
