Godzilla Minus Zero (November 5)
Sequel to Godzilla Minus One, written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki, with Ryûnosuke Kamiki and Minami Hamabe. It runs 2 h 15 min, and the SensaCine México listing advises against it for viewers under 15. It opens in North America on November 6, per The Hollywood Reporter en español.
Wild Horse Nine (November 5)
In the early 1970s, just before the coup in Chile, two CIA agents travel to Easter Island on a mission. Martin McDonagh writes and directs, with Sam Rockwell, John Malkovich and Steve Buscemi leading the cast, per SensaCine México.
The Cat in the Hat (November 5)
An animated take on Dr. Seuss’s 1957 book about a mischievous cat who brings chaos and adventure to everyone he meets. Alessandro Carloni and Erica Rivinoja direct it and Warner Bros. distributes it, per SensaCine México.

Where to watch the releases and how to confirm a showing
The releases play at Cinemark and Cinépolis theaters. Cinemark Panamá lists the Albrook Mall and Pacific Center cinemas on its site, and Telemetro drew the Godzilla Minus Zero and Stray Kids titles from Cinépolis Panamá. It is worth confirming the theater before heading out, because availability is set on release day.
- Open Cinemark Panamá’s movies page and pick the cinema, Albrook Mall or Pacific Center.
- Check the Cartelera, Preventa and Próximamente tabs, where each title shows its runtime and date.
- Wait for the weekly schedule, which is what confirms showtimes and rooms; the upcoming list only gives the planned date.
- Buy the ticket online from the same site once the showing appears.
- Check Cinépolis separately for Godzilla Minus Zero, which was not on Cinemark’s list on November 4.
