Top Box Office Flicks
|
 |
|
During the fall and winter, watching movies are a popular pastime for many. When the temperatures are too cold for outdoor activities, an afternoon spent at the movies is an entertaining alternative. At this time of year, season-centered flicks are all the rage at most any movie theater across America. Halloween came and went, but were the box office numbers dominated by fear-inducing horror flicks? These top ten films were the most popular th...

We really enjoy how Fandango broke the barrier between box office and theater, making it fun and simple for customers to buy their movie tickets.
But they don't stop at being just an online movie ticket service, they also feature trailers, film reviews, celebrity interviews, fan ratings and other great features. They offer movie tickets for many theaters across the nation and even if you can’t find some at a specific theater, you can opt to purchase at another local theater.
Star Reviews loves how Fandango goes above and beyond selling movie tickets and really captures the whole cinematic experience for you. We must applaud them for offering diverse convenience fees, at around $.75-$1.50 per ticket. While tickets vary according to theater and location, some of their convenience charges come in lower than their competitors'. Boasting tickets for 1,300+ theaters nationwide, you're sure to find a local theater near you. Telephone customer support was good, as was support by email, but you will have to register before you can ask away. Overall, we felt they deserved our Top Rated spot with 6.0 Stars!

We had a blast checking out AOL’s baby, Moviefone. Ok, so although we couldn’t buy our movie tickets directly from them, they sure entertained us along the way!
We really liked the MyTheaters feature, where you can enter your zip code and get customized movie listings right at your local cinemas. Moviefone also offers virtual tours of film sets, which we loved.
-
Mr. Moviefone Reviews-We love reviews and these deliver...you can even watch a weekly movie review segment.
-
What's Hot-
Ok, so no Brad Pitt or Jessica Alba. But, you can see featured highlights and cool cast interviews for the newest releases.
Star Reviews commends Moviefone on maintaining a pretty loyal following. There are loads of movie resources available through this site including unique film set tours for those interested in behind-the-scenes access. There are comprehensive movie listings by zip code and you can receive movie alerts through email for your local cineplex. To purchase movie tickets, it's necessary to visit their partner at Movietickets.com, where the convenience charge is $1 per ticket, a fairly reasonable rate. There is a good FAQs section, but no telephone support and a listed email address strictly for suggestions. Overall, Moviefone snagged itself our Most Popular spot at 5.5 Stars!

Who hasn't heard of or used mega search engine Yahoo? Yahoo Movies is their take on all things film and we must say, we really enjoyed some of their features, especially MyMovies. Not only can fans and movie lovers create their own profiles and social network in a sense, they can add their own movie reviews, create favorites lists, rate flicks, etc.
Yahoo, as always, places an emphasis on news and information (which we cannot live without) and offers a unique ‘Movie News & Gossip’ section.
Star Reviews likes Yahoo Movies for their fluid and visually appealing website interface. In typical Yahoo fashion, they offer a ton of features without overloading you with excess text or images. Once again, you must purchase your tickets through Movietickets.com at $1 convenience fee per ticket, which is comparable to most other movie ticket services minus Fandango, who offer lower rates. There is a FAQs section if you should need some assistance, but no comprehensive customer support here. We doubt you'll need it. Yahoo Movies earns 5.5 Stars!

Overall, we felt that Movie Tickets offers a great experience for anyone interested in the latest movies out on the Hollywood scene. Navigating the website is easy enough, with all important links clearly indicated.
There weren’t as many community functions or fan reviews here, but they did have the basics of a movie site like trailers, images, and upcoming movies.
Star Reviews enjoyed this movie ticket service, although not as much as some of the others we researched. We must give Movie Tickets credit for providing direct ticket purchasing through their site, as many of their partners take advantage of their extensive ticket listings for over 80 chains throughout the US and globally. Customer support was ok here, but it can be improved. The FAQs and email support were on point, but telephone support was rather unfriendly. All in all, we award them with 5.0 Stars!

We liked what we ran into on Cinemark, but not as much as some of their competitors’ movie ticket services. They offer the basics of any movie website, with trailers, new releases and film images.
Their website was effortless to navigate and we found most everything we needed with relative ease. We liked their CinéArts theater feature, as there are many film buffs who like foreign and indie films out there. This definitely caters to a more artsy crowd.
Star Reviews has to admit
that we enjoyed what we saw on the Cinemark and although their features weren't as extensive as some of the other movie ticket services, they offer enough. They charge $1 per movie ticket as their convenience fee, which is comparable to their competitions' price ranges. Customer support was a little disappointing, as the section itself was hard to find and email support never replied back to us. Telephone support was not geared toward general customer support inquiries and the rep was rather unhelpful. But, they still win 4.5 Stars!

Hollywood offers anyone interested in movies a great, feature-filled website. Although, we must remind you, you cannot purchase movie tickets directly through this site, as they’re partnered with Movietickets.com as well.
We really enjoyed the scrolling entertainment news, celebrity birthdays, convenient movie calendars, and all kinds of video spotlight features. Any film buff is sure to find something to keep them entertained here.

Fan Sites-Love Leo DiCaprio? How about Selma Hayek? Make your own monument for your favorite celeb.
-
Movie newsletters, movie premiere galleries, celebrity birthdays
Star Reviews liked the Hollywood website, even if it's a little busy with a plethora of scrolling text and images. The convenience charge for tickets purchased through their partner Movietickets.com will cost you $1 per ticket, with tickets running according to theater and location. While we understand that direct ticket purchasing is not available through this site per say, we felt there should have been customer support, as it was truly lacking here. There is no FAQs, email or telephone support. If you have any questions about purchasing, it's best to refer to their partner. They receive 4.0 Stars!

Movies is not just your run of the mill online movie ticket service. While they do partner with MovieTickets.com where you can purchase your tickets, the majority of their site is dedicated to films themselves.
The site was pretty fun to navigate, as it was both bold and intuitive. The search mechanism was very simple and even nominal Internet users shouldn't have a problem here. We enjoyed some features like new release trailers and movie reviews, as well.
-
Flick Finder-Find films such as 'date movies' or 'family films' in your geographic location.
-
Ticket Tally - Free newsletter with alerts, discounts, sweepstakes, contests, etc.
Star Reviews really applauds Movies on providing Hollywood fans a great resource on all things film. They had some cool features like 'The Screening Room' where new releases and cast interviews can be enjoyed. If you wish to purchase tickets to a select show, you'll have to buy them through partner Movietickets.com at $1 per ticket for convenience. This is a common price where your benefits certainly outweigh the cost. They have a fairly detailed FAQs database, but no telephone or email support. They deserve 4.0 Stars!
