At the Movies is an ABC1 program hosted by film critics Margaret Pomeranz and David Stratton, in which they discuss the films opening in theatres that week.
The program, which began in mid-2004, is essentially a continuation of the pair's earlier program The Movie Show, which aired on SBS TV from 1986 to 2004. The pair left SBS after expressing dissatisfaction with high-level decisions.
The weekly half-hour program consists of film reviews and discussions as well as interviews with cast and crew members. The hosts also occasionally broadcast from film events such as the Cannes Film Festival.
It currently airs at 10:00 p.m. Wednesdays and is repeated at 6:00 p.m. Sundays on ABC1 and 4:30 p.m. Fridays and 8:00 p.m. Saturdays on ABC2.
