Why are some films not shown at my local AMC?
In situations where the film distribution companies only print a small amount of copies of a film, they usually limit the number of cinemas in an area that can show the film. Select your cinema to see which films are currently screening, film selections are changed weekly at each cinema.
Are the advanced or preview screening the full film?
Yes, this is the full film. An advanced screening/preview is simply a unique opportunity to see the film before anyone else!
Can I take a baby into the cinema? Do I have to pay for them?
We try to accommodate babies as best we can, the majority of our cinemas will admit babies for U, PG or 12A films. We ask that you consider others when bringing your baby to the cinema, if he/she becomes distressed we request that you take them out of the auditorium. For babes in arms under 2 years of age there is no charge, however if the child takes up a seat you will be asked to pay for a child’s ticket.
What does the 12A certificate mean?
12A is a recent change in classifications in the UK. It means that the BBFC have classified the film unsuitable for children under 12. However, they may still watch the film, as long as they are accompanied by someone over 18 at all times during the showing. Advice is given regarding the content of the film and the ADULT must decide if it is appropriate for the accompanying child.

How much time do the adverts and trailers take up?
