The 12 Best Movie Theaters in New York City

"If you're looking for ribcage-shaking Dolby Atmos sound and the biggest IMAX screen in the country (measuring in at 75.6 feet tall and 101 feet wide), the AMC at Lincoln Square is the king of the city's big chain theaters. The theater is a fun matinee excursion for families, fit with head-sized Icees cups, viral popcorn buckets, and wonderfully crisp 70 mm projection. As is the policy at every AMC theater in the country, tickets for screenings prior to 4 p.m. have 25% taken off the evening price, making a day at the theater one of the best-value things to do in the city. If your crew is hungry afterwards, the theater also places moviegoers near some great crowdpleasers—Magnolia Bakery is just one block up, and Parm's Upper West Side location is just another."
