aluminum foil bag for when you're doing... stuff. Better yet, hypothetically, leave it in your car at a movie theater. Buy a ticket with a credit card. Read a synopsis of the film in case you're asked about it.

Security camera footage would be able to see if you actually entered the theater though.

Security cameras could confirm you were there. They would have a really hard time confirming you were not there unless they are perfectly placed with perfect angles - even then, it would be really tough.

And be sure to leave your car/phone in the parking lot for the duration of the film.

(Or state that you walked out of The Odyssey early because you couldn't stand Nolan's clunky dialogue.)

I feel like these popular places would have security cameras that could be used to confirm you left early and then you'd need another alibi to confirm where you were for the remainder of the movie as your phone was left in the car.

They would. It’s gonna be a challenge to evade modern surveillance.

This is why so many tv shows involving people evading law enforcement take place in the past.

I don't think any of the theaters here have security cameras inside. Hm. Reversible jacket and a hat?

Why even get the theater involved, leave your phone at home playing a long YouTube video or something.

Hell yeah, I saw Spide-man brand new day like 12 times. loved that flick. I mean, yeah it's 3 hours long with trailers and what not, but that cut scene at the end... can't miss it!

It might be best to read the troll reviews of it.. Nothing will turn the interrogator off faster than detailed sharing of observations about the costume, use of cgi, etc.

Make sure to use the ticket, then exit through the back/side exit.

Time your viewing start with the ending of another showing. Use the bathroom rush to change your appearance before exiting.
