Trending Movies 1.0.0.0

A simple app that offers a quick glance into the box-office to check out the current top movies
Nowadays a lot of moviegoers spend time in trying to find out as much as possible about the upcoming films instead of simply going to see them on impulse and this activity involves spending quite a bit of time to check out trailers, reviews from critics and regular viewers.

Those who are simply looking for a simple way to decide which of the current cinema attractions is worth shelling out a few bucks can try on their Windows Phone mobiles an app called Trending Movies.

Clean and friendly front-end

This utility has a nice looking interface, that brings some cool posters onto the screen of your phone. However, the images are not fully-sized movie posters and a large portion of the image will be missing on the lower end.

The graphics are decent and the navigation among the movie screens and inside the details area has a smooth feel to it. Nonetheless, it might take a second or two for those pages to load, so the response is not instantaneous.

The top five motion pictures at a glance

Trending Movies is designed to show only a handful of films for you to make your pick and these are the ones that grabbed the attention of the largest number of people in present days. For each entry you can view the corresponding page from the mobile version of the IMDB website.

All the features you are used to from the well-known portal are at your fingertips so you can profit from this and use the search feature or any other option to look for other productions or actors you are interested in.

Returning to the main screen by closing the IMDB page is done in a very simple manner, by swiping up from the designed area at the bottom of the screen.

  • the movie posters are not complete

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
 

The appearance of this app is good, but the fact that the posters are not shown entirely as they are, even downsized to fit the screen if necessary is a little inconvenient from the visual perspective.

Function7
 

While it is great to have at hand only the best movies that are currently rolling in movie theaters, their very limited number is an important drawback. Fortunately, users can benefit fully from the mobile version of IMDB's website to look for more information.

Security9
 

The application is pretty well behaved and leaves most areas of the system untouched, as it will onely require permission to access the owner and phone identities.

Battery7
 

Since the utility fetches all the information form the Internet, the power consumption remains significant at all times, so the battery usage will be high as long as this tool is running.

Price9
 

A most valuable app for anyone who wants to see which movies are currently high on the list of preferences for motion-picture fans and also get some details about the top five.

Compatibility9
 

Most Windows Phone user will have the possibility to install and run this app onto their devices, as long as version 7.5 or higher of the OS is present.
