CNET Editors' review
Flixter's mobile movie-finder apps continue to dominate, providing an attractive wrapper for Flixster.com that downloads information about films, theaters, and showtimes for current and upcoming movies. Tap any entry to view a host of information, including listings times and reviews from such sites as Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb, though you can also pipe in with your own. Those on a Wi-Fi network can stream quite decent full-screen previews, and if you feel no qualms purchasing tickets from a cell phone, Movies will route you to Movietickets.com for ticket sales. Movies keeps track of your ratings and movies on your to-see list.
Smart integration with Yelp can find you dinner before the show. Google Maps addresses geo-location needs. Adding a Netflix account gives you access to your queue, and letting Movies (optionally) talk to Facebook will broadcast your thoughts with friends. Since the app is practically useless without a data connection, it might be nice to see an optional offline mode for storing information about films. But as long as you're in range, we highly recommend this free application to filmseekers in Canada, the U.K., and the U.S.

"Handy, well-done program"
Version: Movies (Flixster) for Android 2.6
Pros
useful program
Cons
none really
Summary
Useful program - can use the GPS to show you nearby movie theaters, browse their movies and times, and even buy tickets. My favorite part, however, is its integration with rotten tomatoes, so you can quickly see what kind of ratings a movie got.
