It is a good deal. The main drawback is that it's hard to watch in groups/as a family, so it's not good at renting a movie for a birthday party or something, and it is... well, just the movie - you don't get any IMAX or 3D

the catch is that A. it takes a month+ to get the card, all the while you have to pay for the month you won't be able to use it. and B. it is incredibly hard to cancel your subscription.

I don't think there is a movie every month I want to go see.

The last movie I saw before disaster artist was well Thor but befor that it was justice league but before that it was...Spider-Man?

Wait no I saw Logan lucky (don't watch that)

You get charged when you sign up but your billing cycle doesnt actually begin until you use the card. So you wont be charged for your second month until 30 days after use the card for the first time.

The drawbacks of service are that you can only see one movie per day you can only see a particular film once, you cant share the card with anyone else, in the process of using my card to pay for a movie is slightly convoluted. It basically asked like a rechargeable gift card.
