### 2/5 — Unsatisfied

*2019-07-13, version 2.3.26*

When looking at seat availability, it doesnt allow users to return to the home page or even change the timing without having to restart the app. 

In addition, when personal details are placed, it keeps crashing when you restart the app. Forcing users to uninstall and reinstall the app multiple times.

Get your system together and fix it

### 1/5 — Crashing iPhone X

*2019-06-19, version 2.3.25*

Crashing iPhone X

### 1/5 — Words

*2019-05-26, version 2.3.25*

This app wants to commit suicide

### 3/5 — It was fine until it keeps crashing.

*2019-04-29, version 2.3.25*

It was doing fine for a year then it keeps on crashing. Please fix. It’s very convenient app to book tickets.

### 1/5 — Really Bad

*2019-04-27, version 2.3.25*

This app really needs an UPGRADE. It crashes all the time. It is nearly year 2020 and for a GSC I am pretty sure you can afford to fix this some how. Really not user friendly and I am disappointed.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2019-04-24, version 2.3.25*

Everything crash

### 3/5 — Crash

*2019-04-22, version 2.3.25*

App keeps crashing! Fix it please :(

### 1/5 — Not optimized for modern iPhone.

*2019-04-15, version 2.3.25*

Not optimized for new iPhone. Scaling issue on the user interface, probably still using iPhone 5/5s/SE resolution.

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2019-04-13, version 2.3.25*

When you get to the pay window, you get a “network error” window that stalls the app. It is literally impossible to buy a ticket through the app now.

C’mon GSC, fix it!

### 1/5 — App keeps crashing

*2019-04-10, version 2.3.25*

Once app is launched, it will crash within 5 seconds.

### 1/5 — App not optimized

*2019-04-04, version 2.3.24*

Not optimized for XS Max

### 1/5 — Does not work for new users

*2019-03-08, version 2.3.24*

Created an account via the app and it asked me to check my email (which I did dutifully as a Marvel fan). Hooray, the verification email arrived quickly. 

Here’s what really sucked. After verifying the email by clicking the link, I went back to the app but couldn’t log in. App says my account or password is invalid. I use a state of the art password generator/manager so no way I can be wrong. 

Verdict: terrible ui with awful pop up. Hello, Geocities DIED because of ugly design.

### 3/5 — Design and Interface

*2019-01-23, version 2.3.23*

App is not scaled for iphone x and interface needs to be more elegant and sleek.

### 3/5 — Just a little bit more

*2018-12-09, version 2.3.22*

Have no issues with choosing seats and payments. Works just fine. Just need a little bit more improvement for the app navigation. An update on the graphics/interface will make it look more refined as well.

### 1/5 — It doesn't support iOS 9

*2018-08-11, version 2.3.19*

It keeps showing that there is an update but when I click update it shows can't purchase. Please specify the update for supported versions only not all versions.

### 1/5 — App crashes

*2018-01-31, version 2.3.17*

The app crashes everytime I need to choose number of tickets. iOS 11.2.5 on iPhone 6

### 1/5 — Blank Page Upon Opening the App

*2025-04-13, version 4.8.1*

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-03-01, version 3.2.6*

Movie times on the website and the app don’t match. Impossible to pay. Just not good enough.

And mind numbingly slow.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2022-01-29, version 3.1.3*

Fix the app please. The checkout button is not working. It has so many problems as if the management didn’t even care to routinely check the app.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work anymore!

*2019-11-14, version 3.0.0*

Fix it! The seating plan is a blank screen! I have to sign up all over again and they don’t allow one to untick the receive promotion materials!

### 1/5 — Which cheap monkey developers c

*2019-07-27, version 2.3.27*

the UI is so 1990 ... user experience is out the window.

Lame.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load/open app

*2019-07-13, version 2.3.26*

This app use to work even tho it was poorly designed and required a lot of unnecessary navigating. It has completely stopped working and does not load up. For a large company like this to fail in such a simple app is disappointing

*2019-07-10, version 2.3.26*

Zero star for you @gsc

### 1/5 — Still crashes

*2019-07-10, version 2.3.26*

The new version claims to fix the bug that crashes the app’s homepage. But it doesn’t. It still crashes.

### 1/5 — Would give 0 stars is there was that option

*2019-06-29, version 2.3.25*

Crashes the moment I log into the app!
