So it’s Friday night and you’re out with your friends and have nothing to do. You could go bowling, but that’s too expensive and probably packed. You could go mini golfing, but the course is probably filled with Jr. high kids. Or you could go catch a movie, the only problem is you don’t know the show times, what movies are out, or if they’re any good. Well now all you need to check up on the latest flicks in your area is the Hot Popcorn app for your iPhone or iTouch.

Hot Popcorn is an app that brings all the movie information you want into one, convenient place. With this app you can: browse local show times, read movie reviews, check movie ratings, watch trailers, buy tickets, and even check out new DVD releases!

For starters, Hot Popcorn allows you to enter your location that it will use to search for nearby theaters and show times. So it doesn’t matter where you are, as long as you have service you can check on movie times. But if you can’t decide on a movie to watch, Hot Popcorn will help you do that too. You can read reviews courtesy of RottenTomatoes.com and check out what other people have rated films. But if that doesn’t help you decide, you still have the option of watching the trailer directly on your device! Once you decide on a movie, you can purchase tickets from your iPhone so they’ll be waiting for you when you arrive!

Don’t feel like going out? Hot Popcorn also caters to the home crowd, giving them the ability to browse through DVDs. Watch previews, read reviews and ratings, and even purchase DVDs through Amazon.com, all right on your iPhone or iTouch!

So if you’re ever faced with the dilemma of what movie to see, solving your problem is as easy as turning on your iPhone and starting up Hot Popcorn. For just a $1.99 this app is definitely worth the price. I recommend it for anyone who goes to the movies because you will use it!

Verdict: 5/5 Stars
