Updates have improved Flixster’s Movies, while Movies & Theaters earns second billing

It’s time to head back to the multiplex. But what to see? Haven’t this summer’s offerings been… well, not exactly abysmally bad, but solidly mediocre? Let’s see: A look at the user reviews on Flixster’s Movies app for the iPhone and iPod touch shows that 87 percent of viewers thought Transformers 2 was worth the price of admission. Really? The mainstream reviews were almost universally negative and…

Love it!


Love it!

Best of the best for movie fans! The movie theaters and show time information is the best feature! I enjoy it.


Worked Great

I wanted to take my grandson to his first movie and found this app, downloaded it and found just the movie to see! It is very easy to use and gave a great description of the movie. I especially liked the remarks by others who had seen the movie.


Best Movie App

This is my go-to app if i want to know what is in the local theater or what just came out in dvd, definitely recommend it!


Great app, wish the ads weren't so obvious

Great movie app, I have liked it the best from the start. The ads are getting more annoying, but I still recommend it.


Easier than the computer!

I have found this the most convenient way to find info about movies. It's easy to navigate, you can find out what's playing nearby, synopses, trailers from right inside the app, and more. I also like that there are both Flixster user reviews and Rotten Tomatoes reviews. Everything in one place, and fast!


Eh...

This app does what it says, but is filled with ads, some of which take the entire screen and require you to click away. Though I don't love it, I do prefer "Now Playing" as an alternative to this app. At least now playing doesn't have so many ads.


Fantastic app

Great for finding movies for the whole family. Gives times, theaters, and directions. Movie info from around the web is helpful too. I just wish I could buy movie tickets from within the app.


Best Movie App by Far!

The only app i have found with a complete set of movies including DVDs, accurate theater showtimes, trailers and more. Overall awesome - one of my favorites!
