Flixster

The Flixster Palm Pre application complements the Fandango app reviewed here previously. The Flixster movie app adds a social-networking component to movie information. You can see user reviews, ratings, and comments from within the app. In most other respects it is pretty much identical to the Fandango application. You can read Rotten Tomatoes user reviews, get details and showtimes for the latest playing movies, as well as buy tickets from within the application.

You can also see full trailers for movies, with the Pre’s landscape mode coming into its own with this feature. Speed is good, with no obvious stuttering or playback buffering with both Wifi and cellular data connections. Like the Fandango app, this connects seamlessly with your calendar so that when you purchase movie tickets the event is added immediately to your calendar. This is a useful app if you like the social aspects with reviews and more interactive stuff compared to the Fandango application.
