Movies at Cineplex in Montreal just got a whole lot cheaper — But there's a catch

$5 movies are back, folks! 🙌

Calling all Montreal-based movie lovers! If you've got a bunch of movies on your must-watch list for April, there's good news ahead. Cineplex is bringing back its popular $5 Tuesdays movie deal for a limited time, and yes, even popcorn is cheaper.

For just two days — Tuesday, April 22 and Tuesday, April 29 — you can catch a film at Cineplex theatres across Montreal (and the rest of Canada) for only $5 plus tax.

On the same dates, you can also get a small bag of popcorn for $5, which means your movie night (with a snack) will come in for around $10 if you skip any extras. That also means for a family of four, you're looking at a movie night together for around $40. Not bad, right?

The deal applies to general admission tickets when bought in-person at the theatre.

If you're planning to buy online, the price goes up slightly due to booking fees: $6 for Scene+ members, $6.50 for everyone else, and still just $5 for CineClub members (who already pay a monthly fee for perks). The online fees include things like reserved seating and digital tickets, but just a heads-up — the fee caps at the first four tickets per transaction.

Craving a premium experience? You can still grab this deal for UltraAVX or IMAX showings, but there's an extra charge on top. And as for that popcorn, you'll need to physically ask for a small popcorn at the concession counter. No mobile orders, no combos and no fancy toppings, unless you want to pay extra, of course.

If you miss this deal, don't worry. Cineplex still offers discounts every Tuesday under their Big Deal Tuesdays program. And Scene+ members can save an extra 10% off ticket prices, which stacks nicely with those weekly discounts.

So whether you're catching the latest blockbuster or just in it for the popcorn and recliner vibes, now's a solid time to plan your next night out at the movies.

Just don't sleep on it —the $5 magic only lasts for two more Tuesdays.
