Investing.com — AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE:) share price closed Friday up 19% after initially rising 23%, on the back of news that the film “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has broken AMC box office records.
Market commentators think cinema is dead. Could this lead to some rethinking?

It was released at AMC Cinemas USA last night and became the highest-grossing film on the opening night of the chain’s cinema chain. It was also the second-highest-grossing film on AMC’s opening night, behind only “AVENGERS: ENDGAME” from 2019.
AMC estimates that approximately 1.1 Million people saw the movie at an AMC U.S. theatre on Thursday.
“Needless to say, we are ever so happy to see a record-setting number of people returning to the cinema to capture the magic offered at AMC movie theatres,” said Adam Aron, AMC chairman and CEO.
Aron added, “Spider-Man clearly indicates to us that consumers in large numbers desire the experience that only AMC theatres can provide.”
