2020 has not been kind to movie theaters. Revenue is way down, approximately 22 percent, thanks to closures during the pandemic.

But AMC has a new offering: "Grab 19 pals," and then you can go to a theater and split the cost between your friends ($99). Then you're all watching the film together.

Here's how you reserve a theater: Fill out a form on AMC's website.

You're not always able to get a theater for $99. Sometimes the price is as high as $349. It all depends on what movie you want to see.
