AMC Cinemas
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
AMC Cinemas is a cinema company in the United Kingdom. It is the UK division of AMC Theatres {American Multi-Cinemas} of Kansas City, Missouri, USA.
In the 1980's AMC built and operated a number of multiplex ten-screen cinemas in the UK, including sites at locations such as Dudley and Tamworth. These were subsequently bought and taken over by UCI as AMC temporarily pulled out of the UK market.
In the early 200s, the 16-screen AMC Great Northern was opened in Manchester, thereby marking the brand's limited return to the UK. This was later supplemented by the opening of a 12-screen cinema on the new Broadway Plaza site in Birmingham.
At the present time, there are no plans for AMC to open any more sites in the UK.
