How much does going to a movie cost where you live?

Just curious. I've heard of places that charge $10+ dollars and I'm happy it hasn't gotten to that yet here!

Theaters here charge about $6-$7.50. Matinees are around $4-$5. The dollar theaters are $1.50 but the two closest each have a cheap night, one charges $.50 and the other $.75. I love 50 cent movie night.

It's a pretty nice theater too for that price.

Renting a new release movie is about $4. There's that McDonald's redbox thing for $1 but I haven't tried it yet, Blockbuster/Hollywood video is closer.

On weekends..it's 10 bucks...any other day it's 7-7.50 I think

it's about the same here as where you are. i'm in columbia, south carolina...i do try to go to a matinee, though, and, those are about $5.50. or sometimes they'll let me in as a student (same price as matinee)...even though i never went to college and i'm 29. sometimes it's a good thing looking like i'm not even old enough to legally drink.

Snacks are crazy, though, that's where they make all their profits. It's insane. But, one of the theaters I go to, just started doing free refills, so, that'll help a lot!

I think it's $11 for a movie here, $5.50 for a matinee. I rarely go to the movies at night unless it's for something really good that I have to see the day it comes out on a midnight showing. Like lord of the rings, star wars or harry potter. I go to the drive in a lot, two movies for $5.

Going to see a movie is 9 dollars; renting a movie is 4.2 dollars.

It's $7.50 here. I think there is one night during the week where tickets are like $4.50, but it's like a Tuesday night so we never go then.

I think going to the movie is about 5 euros, which works out to about 7 or 8 USD, not too bad if you ask me! I love going to the cinema and hunkering down with a big box of popcorn!
