AMC is fully launching its program through which anyone can rent out a movie theater privately. The move comes after a four-week trial to test people's interest, during which AMC got more than 110,000 requests across the nation.

Private movie showings are priced from $99 plus tax, depending on location, with the price including tickets for up to 20 people. New-release movies like Tenet are priced between $149 and $349 plus tax.

You can book an AMC theater for yourself by using the AMC website or mobile app. As with booking a regular ticket, all you have to do is select which movie you want to see at your local theater, the time and date, then confirm and check out. Bookings need to be done at least a day in advance.
