But there are a few tricks to cut the costs of watching the latest blockbusters . . . 

CASH BACK: Watch three action films at Showcase cinemas before July 19 and you’ll get £5 in rewards that can be used to buy future tickets.

You’ll need to join the chain’s free loyalty scheme Insider and watch qualifying movies, which include The Fall Guy and Bad Boys: Ride Or Die.

Find your nearest screen at showcasecinemas.co.uk.

You can also get seven per cent cashback on Odeon gift cards bought through topcashback.co.uk.

Instead of buying cinema tickets for individual films, you could buy a gift card for the value you need to use — and you’ll get a little money back.

CHECK YOUR PERKS: Some household products, including bank accounts and insurance policies, come with exclusive cinema deals.

For example, buy a qualifying product through comparethemarket.com and you will get two-for-one cinema tickets every Tuesday or Wednesday for a year.

A Club Lloyds current account gets you six free tickets a year at Vue or Odeon.

Sky Cinema customers get two free Vue tickets each month, while O2 customers get two Vue tickets for £9 through its priority scheme.

REAP REWARDS: Tesco Clubcard holders double the value of vouchers if buying a Cineworld unlimited pass.

The membership allows you to watch as many films as you like at your local cinema.

Prices for the pass start at £131 for the year but will depend on the group your local branch falls into.
