movie guides

Cinema schedule booklets

Movie guides are publications or resources that provide information about films—listings of what's playing, plot summaries, ratings, reviews, or recommendations.

They range from newspaper showtimes to comprehensive reference books to streaming platform interfaces: I checked the movie guide to see what's on tonight.

The term also covers people who lead discussions or tours related to cinema.
