Flixster 3.1
Flixster is the Windows Phone app that aims to make that possible, by providing details about all box office entries, fresh DVD releases and a lot more.
Good looks and straightforward navigation
Furnished with an attractive interface, this application keeps all the information neatly structured into several categories, so you can find at a glance anything you are interested in.
The navigation is pretty smooth throughout the utility and the trailers load fast, even though the video quality could be a lot better when "Best quality" setting is selected. Also, occasional prompts to evaluate the app may be encountered during Flixster's runtime.
Get detailed information about any movie and find a cinema to go to
The amount of information it provides is more than sufficient for anyone to get a good idea on what to expect from an unseen movie. Also, the ability to locate theaters near your location and display details about them, including map localization, brings a lot of value.
Flixster enables you to create and manage your own lists of movies you want to see, as well as DVDs you own or have rented. At times, the data can take a bit longer to load, so it's advisable to avoid switching menus quickly and wait for the information to be displayed, otherwise the waiting time will increase.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The interface is nice, even if it doesn't come with all the bells and whistles. Instead it is very practical and easy to use, thanks to a well thought layout and manner of organizing all the data inside. |
Function9
Flixster offers a very good feature set, which anyone can benefit from when they need to quickly locate a movie theater, read the reviews from critics and viewers or manage the personal film collection. |
Security9
The app only needs the location services to be activated and this in order to be able to provide accurate information about nearby cinemas and their showtimes. |
Battery7
While updating the movie data, using the maps to locate theaters and during trailer playback the power consumption will be well above average, but otherwise it remains moderate. |
Price9
A very good deal overall, Flixter puts everything on the table and asks for nothing in return, with the exception of an occasional prompt to rate the app. |
Compatibility9
This utility is well suited for most Windows Phone powered devices as it will run on those with versions 7.5 or higher installed. |
