Buy them online, either with 团购 (Groupon-like sites) or just through Taobao sellers. I found a Taobao seller who sells movie tickets locally, I have his number saved in my phone and I just call him when I want tickets. He tells me what’s available and I send him money through Zhifubao using Taobao and he sends me a code which I use at the theater. There must be a simpler way but I’d say I go to movie theaters in China maybe 3-4 times a year, not very often.
checked and found it’s an advertisement. Pls check the Avatar. this post should be removed.
Thanks Sue. I changed that user to remove any advertisements.
The little kiosks that sell newspapers and magazines sell vouchers for cinema’s. You just exchange them at the cinema, but you can only sit in certain areas.
We just buy ours online at Shiguang, I went last night to see Thor 2 only paid 38rmb at Wanfujing. Don’t really bother with Wanda anymore.
If you have a Merchant’s Bank card you can use this to pay at most cinemas (Wanda, Wangfujing, raffles, galleria, all the big malls) and the price is only 30 or 35 yuan.
Wow those are great prices for the movies. watched a movie last weekend, and i thought i bought the one that’s for Thor but I was actually given a ticket for sylvester stallone’s escape plan at the cinema in Ren He mall, and I cant believe I paid 128 yuan for that! i should go to wangfujing next time..
I buy mine through Dianping tuangou, I think this might be what Charlie said, depending on what movie theater you’re at the tickets are around 20-25, if you wanna see 3D they’ll upcharge you about 5 at the movie theater. Sometimes you have to wait in line for a machine for the ticket, then go to the counter for a seat, but if you play the “stupid laowai” card you might be able to get the lady at the counter to give you your ticket and your seat all in one go. 128 yuan is robbery bro.
Just got back from watching Gravity at DMAX. Don’t miss the start of the movie like half the audience did.

I saw this last night also, at Wanda Plaza in IMAX 3D. 55 yuan per ticket via tuangou. Really good movie.
It seems Baidu maps have added a feature that allows you to check cinema times and even buy tickets.
It trumps Google maps by 1,000,000 points in my book.

Have you used this before? That sounds really convenient. Hopefully payment works easily with UnionPay or Zhifubao.
I had a little look and stopped at the stage where it asks for your phone number. Not sure what is supposed to happen after that. I think it just went live today. I woke up to an update and saw that there were new features for cinema listings.
It’s actually a really handy new feature because it also distinguishes between 2D/3D/Imax or English language and dubbed movies on the listings. Which is not always clear when you are at the cinema.
Used Luomi.com and saw Hunger Games 2 for 29 kuai
How does payment work on that site? I’m interested in seeing Hunger Games 2 as well, I hear it’s better than the first.
