iPad App of the Day - Flixster

Movies by Flixster, with Rotten Tomatoes (for the iPad)
Flixster, 10.7 mb, FREE
(iPhone and Android version also available)














Flixster is the best, most useful app for current movie theater attendees. See all needed information on the latest flicks. Even better, find the nearest movie theater and showtimes using the iPad's location service. Flixster also shows the Rotten Tomatoes calculated score and top reviews, though I try to ignore that (never trust Internet mob rule when factored into ratings unless extremely low or high). Love the connected preview trailers, which is most helpful with the indie movies. As for the nearest movie info; times, upcoming showtimes, map info and more is available to the quick touch. In all, that puts an end to the frustration of making phone calls and shuffling through newspapers.

Flixster is free, but supported by ads. Sometimes the ads pop up after the app opens, a small price but worthwhile price to pay for this excellent service.
