What is the Cinemark API?

The Cinemark Chile API exposes 11 endpoints covering every theater in Chile, current and upcoming movies, session-level showtimes, ticket pricing, and concessions menus. Starting with get_cinemas you can retrieve all Cinemark locations with coordinates, city, available formats, and room counts, then drill down to showtimes and ticket prices for any specific theater and session.

Python SDK · recommended

Typed, relational, agent-ready

A generated client with real types, enums, and the links between objects — the structure a flat JSON response can't carry. Autocompletes in your editor and reads cleanly to coding agents.

  • Fully typed · autocompletes
  • Objects link to objects
  • Typed errors & pagination

Typed Python client. Set up the SDK in your uv project, then pull this API’s typed client:

About the Cinemark API

Theaters, Movies, and Showtimes

get_cinemas returns every Cinemark Chile location as an array of theater objects including id, name, slug, address, city, latitude, longitude, available formats, totalCinemaRooms, and a hasConcessi flag. Those IDs feed directly into get_showtimes and get_movies_now_showing. get_showtimes accepts a theater_id and an optional date (YYYY-MM-DD) and returns session-level detail: movieId, movieName, language, formats, theaterRoom, sessionId, and seat availability. get_movies_now_showing accepts a cinema_id and returns results grouped first by date, then by movie, with each movie's sessions nested underneath.

Movie Catalog and Releases

get_movies returns the full catalog — SHOWING_NOW, PRESALE, and COMING_SOON titles — with an optional status filter. Each movie object includes id, corporateId, slug, title, openingDate, runTime, posterUrl, rating, formats, and languages. For richer detail, pass a movie slug to get_movie_details to receive the full synopsis, cast, genres, versions, and trailer URL. get_releases narrows the catalog to presale and upcoming titles and accepts an optional date prefix to filter by opening date.

Ticket Prices and Concessions

get_ticket_prices requires both a cinema_id and a showtime_id (available from showtime results) and returns the full Tickets array for that session, including ticket types and prices. get_confiteria takes a cinema_id and returns the snack bar menu organized into categories such as Combos, Coleccionables, and Rellenos — each item includes mCode, title, description, salePri (price in cents), and any modifier options.

Promotions and Loyalty

get_promotions returns current deals with title, description, image, startDate, endDate, applicable theaterIds, and termsAndConditions. get_muvi_club_info returns structured information about Cinemark Chile's Muvi Club loyalty program. get_formats lists all cinema formats (2D, 3D, IMAX, DBOX, XD, PALCO, PREMIER, PLAY) with description, images, feature flags, and labelList.

Reliability & maintenanceVerified

The Cinemark API is a managed, monitored endpoint for cinemark.cl — not a raw scraper you maintain. Every endpoint is automatically health-checked on a schedule, and when cinemark.cl changes and a check fails, the API is automatically queued for repair and re-verified. It is built to keep working as the site underneath it changes.

This isn't an official cinemark.cl API — it's an independent, maintained REST wrapper over public data. Where the source has no official API (or only a limited one), Parse gives you a stable contract over a source that never promised one, and keeps it current. Need a new endpoint or field? You can revise it yourself in plain English and the agent rebuilds it against the live site in minutes — contributing the change back to the shared API is free.

Maintenance
Monitored & self-healing
Will this API break when the source site changes?+
It's built not to. Every endpoint is health-checked on a schedule with automated test probes. When the source site changes and a check fails, the API is automatically queued for repair and re-verified — that's the self-healing layer. Each API page shows when its endpoints were last verified. And because marketplace APIs are shared, any fix reaches everyone using it.
Is this an official API from the source site?+
No — Parse APIs are independent, managed REST wrappers over publicly available data. That is the point: where a site has no official API (or only a limited one), Parse gives you a maintained, monitored endpoint for that data and keeps it working as the site changes — so you get a stable contract over a source that never promised one.
Can I fix or extend this API myself if I need a new endpoint or field?+
Yes — and you don't have to wait on us. This API was generated by the Parse agent, which stays attached. Describe the change in plain English ("add an endpoint that returns reviews", "fix the price field") in the revise box on the API page or via the revise_api MCP tool, and the agent rebuilds it against the live site in minutes. Contributing the change back to the public API is free.
What happens if I call an endpoint that has an issue?+
Errors are machine-readable: a bad call returns a clean status with the list of available endpoints and a repair hint, so an agent (or you) can recover or trigger a fix instead of failing silently. Confirmed failures feed the automatic repair queue.
Common use cases
  • Build a showtime aggregator that displays all Cinemark Chile sessions by city using get_cinemas and get_showtimes.
  • Compare ticket prices across formats (IMAX vs 2D) for the same session using get_ticket_prices with different showtime_id values.
  • Send push notifications for presale openings by polling get_releases and watching for status changes to SHOWING_NOW.
  • Display a full movie profile page by combining get_movie_details (synopsis, cast, trailer) with session data from get_movies_now_showing.
  • Build a concessions pre-order tool using the get_confiteria menu categories, item prices, and modifier options.
  • Track which promotions apply to a given theater by matching theaterIds from get_promotions against a selected cinema_id.
  • List upcoming releases filtered by opening date by passing a YYYY-MM-DD prefix to get_releases.

Frequently asked questions
Does Cinemark Chile have an official developer API?+
Cinemark Chile does not publish a public developer API or API documentation for third-party use.
How do `get_showtimes` and `get_movies_now_showing` differ?+
get_showtimes returns a flat array of session objects keyed by sessionId, each with movieId, language, formats, theaterRoom, and seat availability. get_movies_now_showing returns the same theater's sessions but grouped hierarchically by date and then by movie, which is useful when you need to render a schedule view without doing that grouping yourself. Both require a theater ID; get_showtimes additionally accepts an optional date filter.
Does `get_ticket_prices` return prices for all ticket categories?+
It returns the full Tickets array for the requested session, which includes all ticket types and their prices that Cinemark Chile publishes for that showtime. The response object also contains a ResponseCode field. Prices are session-specific, so the same movie in IMAX vs 2D will require separate calls with different showtime_id values.
Can I look up showtimes across all cinemas in one call?+
Not currently. get_showtimes and get_movies_now_showing both require a specific theater_id or cinema_id, so a cross-theater schedule requires one call per theater. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add a multi-theater aggregation endpoint.
Is seat-map or seat-selection data available?+
No seat-map data is exposed. The API returns seat availability flags at the session level (from get_showtimes and get_movies_now_showing) but does not expose individual seat identifiers, seat categories, or interactive seating layouts. You can fork this API on Parse and revise it to add a seat-map endpoint if that data becomes accessible.
