The fourth and final round leads us to "Movie Finder". If I believed in judging a book by its cover, this one would of never gone to the presses, i wasn't too excited about the logo but maybe there's a hidden gem inside.
You can download it on the Market here.
The first thing you're prompted to do is read a book......not really but you might as well be since i'm pretty sure the User Agreement you have to accept is well over 500 words long. I noticed the load time was close to nothing which was definitely not what I was expecting, but then I got to the home screen where again, I was informed that my location could not be found. Either I live in an anti-satillite district or this is the second movie application that snarls in the face of enabled WiFi.
Once I got the ball rolling in my favor it still took well over a minute to locate me, but it definitely pinpointed my location. There isn't really much to this application, you're presented with a GPS Toggle button, a pull down menu for your location, a fairly large Google Maps window displaying the whereabouts, and a second pull down menu asking you when you expect to go see the movies. I selected a date and it took me to a second screen with a progress bar and a red X.
Let me just say that as long as it took to get back results, its no wonder they placed a cancel button next to the progress bar. The first two times failed and returned me back to the home screen but after the third i finally succeded in getting some content loaded. I say some because it failed to load the Movie art and most of the user ratings.
After I encountered a third error message, I decided to call it quits, I really doubt anyone in their right mind would put up with such an unproductive a pplication. Stay tuned to see which one claimed the prize of Android Anarchy Top Rated Movie App.
