There is an increasing amount of apps related to movies available for smart phones. You can even go to a theaters website through your browser to look up movie times if you want. Others such as fandango and yahoo both offer movie times through their websites. But, the easiest way is to download an app that will access all the information for every theater in your area. You can search by movie or theater and all the times will pop up for you right then and there. There are two apps that are superior to the others, Flixster and Fandago's movie app.
Flixster's app is very easy to use and a cool feature that they offer is the ability to watch previews of the movies right there on your phone. With Flixster you are able to search by movie or theater. If you know what movie you want to see you can search for that movie and your phone will pull up all the theaters in your area that are playing that movie and a list of what time they are playing. If you look up the theater is will show you a list of all the movies it is currently playing and what time they are playing. They also provide you with information about movies such as rating, reviews, cast members, etc. Flixster even allows you to buy tickets to some of the theaters. Flixster doesn't stop with movies in theaters. They even have a section for DVDs. You can look up when new DVDs are coming out, reviews, rating, cast members, and length of the DVD
Fandango's app is pretty similar to Flixster's and is also very easy to use. They allow you to buy ticket instantly over your phone to over 16,000 theaters. Once you choose which theater you will be watching your movie, Fandango allows you to get directions to that theater from your location. You can look up cast members, reviews, top box office stats, and even new movies opening dates.
Both apps are pretty similar in functionality but Flixster lacks the robust list of theaters that you can purchase tickets from over your phone and Fandango's lacks the DVD section. Both apps are great and will not leave you disappointed.
