Where It Excels
IMDb is already a staple of movie research.
If youve ever asked Wait, what else is he in?
you probably used IMDb to look it up.
It may even already be installed on your phone.
it’s possible for you to also buy tickets through the app.
This service is powered by our previous recommendation Fandango, so you might get the best of both worlds.
In both cases, IMDb justifies taking up space on your phone.
Beyond that, theres very little that other showtime apps can do that IMDb cant.
The bigger question is if youwantall those extra features.
Everyone elses ticket-buying system is powered by Fandango, so why not skip the middleman?
Movies by Flixster(Free) is also a solid option.
