Limitations: Sorry but we can only support portrait mode for now. Portrait mode is suitable for showing movie list, but not for typing, we didn't support auto-rotation because the behavor is messing on Maemo5. In some countries, movie trailers maybe can't be displayed due to technical reason.

Fixed portrait mode is incredibly annoying (especially for entering text), and the database doesn't even have my favourite cinema (http://www.cineplex.com.au/sessions-SB.php).
The app looks nice, but does have a fair few flaws. The fixed Portrait Mode is a pain for entering text, and the app is slow to respond after entering city/country. Still needs some work.
i have yet to get this app to work. once you input the city and country ( - in my case the US), nothing happens. The app is also extremely awkward, requiring the user to switch between portrait and landscape modes for input. Very poor!
US must be one of the countries where I can't view trailers. In aadition if you accidentally return to the location screen, it freezes and I have to force the program to end.
