If you’re the parent of little ones, one of the most highly anticipated movie events of the summer ISN’T the latest blockbuster. It’s the Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express schedule! Our Jersey Family Fun readers anxiously await the lineup each summer as this series is a cheap way to see movies with kids in a cool theater on those hot days. And anything goes, as it’s geared toward kids who might need to get up and move, or haven’t yet perfected their whisper.

What’s different about Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express for the summer of 2022?
In previous years, the Regal Cinemas website made it very easy for families to see the full schedule for their local Regal theater. Unfortunately, it’s not so easy this year.
For 2022, you will need to make sure the Regal Cinemas website is set to your location. (IF you are in New Jersey we are working to individually check every NJ Regal Cinema theater to see what their schedule will be. The updates will be below. Keep scrolling.)
- With the website updated to your location, you could see up to 32 movie choices.
- You will need to click on the movie image to see if that movie is indeed playing at your local theater.
- Once the new page loads, scroll down to the bottom of the page to see if there are screenings in your area.
- Sadly, even though 32 movie images came up for Mays Landing, as of May 26, 2022, I was only able to find 20 that are actually playing at my local theater.
What else is different about Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express for 2022?
- Ticket prices are $2 per person.
- It looks like tickets need to be purchased in advance. There is no specific statement to this fact. However, this is the first time tickets have been available for purchase online.
- There appears to be a ticket limit of 10 tickets per person.
- Showtimes will vary. In the past, all Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express showtimes were Tuesdays and Wednesdays. NOW, it looks completely different. For example, Despicable Me 2 has only one showtime in Mays Landing at 11:30 am on Tuesday, June 28, but in Vineland, it will show at 12 pm.
- In other words, movie times will vary by theater and sometimes from week to week.

Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express Movie Schedule for 2022
As we check each individual theater’s schedules we’ll update this for 2022. This will be a continuous process as some theaters have released their entire schedule, some have released the first few weeks, and some haven’t released anything. Again, it’s not how it was in the past with all theaters showing the same two movies simultaneously on the same days.

I’m wondering how you found those movies for Hamilton NJ? I’ve been looking on the app but none of them come up for Hamilton. When I click the movie, I see times listed for other locations but Hamilton doesn’t seem to be showing any of them. Neither does Burlington actually.

Just FYI, the movie times are no longer 10 am. They are “the same time as whatever the first showing” is. According to staff
