Constant enshittification of cinema, rising ticket prices, rising popcorn prices, rising price of literally everything except wages. There is no space for 30$ (local price converted to USD) for an hour and half of entertainment. Excluding travel time (half an hour one way, same back), half an hour of ads, and food (easily 20$ for popcorn and drink).
I'd rather buy a game for the same price, and spend tens of hours playing it, or a desk game, or a book, or literally anything else that is cheaper, and gives costs less money per hour spent.
