The little-known perk is called Prime Premiere and is included with an Amazon Prime membership.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
To take advantage of the screenings, all viewers need to do is visit roughly one week before a scheduled premiere.
Here, individuals can reserve tickets for themselves as well as one guest.
Users should select the “Reserve Tickets” page and select a nearby theater for the screening.
From there, Amazon members can select the desired number of tickets they wish to reserve.
There is no purchase necessary.
All tickets will be available for download.
Concessions are also included in the ticket reservation, with each guest given a free small popcorn and a small soda or water.

While the ticket will guarantee entry to the event, viewers will not be able to select their seats.
Amazon has said the seats are offered on a “first come, first served basis” with the theaters opening around 45 minutes before show time.
Current screenings include premieres of blockbuster films like Challengers, The Beekeeper, and American Fiction.
