Contributor

Get your popcorn ready! You may not be quite ready to head back to the theatre just yet, but that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the latest and greatest films being released. There are plenty of movies for rent on Cineplex right now, and tons of them cost way less than a ticket to the show.

For just $5, you can relax in the comfort of your home while streaming cheesy, heartfelt romantic comedies, action-packed dramas, or chilling thrillers that will have you hanging off the edge of your seat.

Once you pay for the film on the Cineplex website, you have 30 days to watch it. When you decide to click play, however, the movie will only stay in your library for 48 hours, meaning that you've got just two days to get your money's worth.

Titles are also available for purchase online from the theatre so you can keep them forever, and the content library is updated regularly!
