IMDB Movies and TV

Where TVShow Time was dedicated to TV shows, IMDB is primarily for movies, but you can search for TV shows as well.

Although IMDB is more than just a resource for digging movies. It is an International Movie Database with tons of information about movies, TVs, actors and actresses.

You have a favorite actor or actress?? You can look into his/her biography on the IMDB, not just that, you can read trivia about them, read their whole filmography as well as know about future films.

IMDB also provides you with the trailers and interviews from the upcoming films and reviews of the ones released. Not to mention that IMDB ratings are a world class standard.

On the whole, this is the place to be, if you are a movie buff. There is nothing about the film world that you wouldn’t find here.

Movies by Flixster

Flixster is another popular platform for exploring latest movies. You can see the movie reviews, showtimes and trailers.

Basically the app is divided into three sections; Box office, Cinemas and DVD. Each section is then further divided into three subsections.

When you slide the app drawer out from the left, you will see three main sections as mentioned above. Choosing Box office takes you to the latest releases, upcoming movies and news.

Similarly, choosing cinemas will locate the nearest cinemas to your location. And in the DVD section, you can browse the DVDs by their categories, see the latest DVD releases as well as upcoming ones.

You can also search for movies, add them to your ‘want to see’ list, review and rate the movies. The app also gives you the rotten tomatoes ratings for the movies.

It recently received the material design overhaul which has made the app modern and stylish. Also, it is much faster now, it loads within seconds and the search results come back quicker.
