First responders can get a free movie at Studio Movie Grill on Jan. 12 just by flashing their badge.

In honor of the movie “Patriots Day,” which tells the story of the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, the dine-in movie theater chain is offering a free film to any police officer, firefighter or other first responder who presents their badge.
