The line at the movies starts and ends in your pocket.
With iPhone and BoxOffice, you can read reviews, locate theaters and show times, even purchase tickets.
BoxOffice allows you to:
browse local theaters by movies, show times, and distance check rating scores from RottenTomatoes.com order tickets directly from participating theaters check out what’s playing at your favorite theater keep movie and theater information on your iPhone, even without a network connection
Grab it at the App Store now … if you live in the U.S., the currently posted version only supports zip codes. If you live in Canada … hey, grab the source and build it yourself, then it works fine — check it out:
