KANSAS CITY, Mo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AMC Theatres (AMC), a leading theatrical exhibition and entertainment company, announces that guests are now able to see movies like never before when the AMC Enhanced Theatre Experience (ETX) opens with BATTLE: LOS ANGELES at AMC Tysons Corner 16 in McLean, Va. on March 18.
