Good For
Early-adopting loyalists and those who are already a member and don't want to bother canceling. Or those who don't see a lot of superhero and action franchises.
What you Get
You can see three movies a month, from a list of supported films. Big blockbusters and action franchises are prohibited, at least initially. You can buy additional tickets with discounts of up to $5. But keep in mind, the conditions have been changing a lot lately, so these terms could change too.

Good For
Those who live near an AMC theater and want to see a lot of movies. Especially wide-release blockbusters, 3-D or IMAX.
What you Get
The most movies, with the fewest limitations but also the highest price. See up to three movies a week, including 3-D and IMAX films. You can even go to repeat viewings or two movies in one day, so long as there's a two-hour buffer between them. You can also make online reservations and hold up to three reservations at any time. Because this is part of their Stubs loyalty program, you also accumulate discounts and upgrades on concessions as well.

Good For
People who want choices in their subscription plans. And those who'd benefit from family plans.
What you Get
Sinemia offers several straightforward plans. For about four bucks, you can see one standard movie a month. Seven dollars gets you two tickets per month. For nine, you can see two movies, including 3-D and IMAX formats. Like MoviePass, you can use it at pretty much at any theater, but unlike MoviePass (thankfully) it has no showtime blackouts. Sinemia is also testing partnerships with Restaurant.com and ride-sharing services for a more wholistic approach to date nights.

Good For
Those who live near a Cinemark theater and can't see a movie without snacks.
What you Get
For a little less than the average price of a ticket, you can see one 2-D movie a month. But you can also buy companion tickets for $8.99 and get 20% off concessions for you and a friend (which is very enticing). But best of all, if you don't use your ticket for the month, your credit rolls over to the next month—and those unused credits don't expire.
