Founder of the app here. Ever since Yahoo Weather came out, it's displaced my default weather app. I really liked it's intuitive and easy to use interface. That's what I was trying to go for here. Hope you guys like it.
It's 100% native - objective-c. No Swift yet since it's too new and I like to see examples of what's out there and existing codebase. It's mostly a UI for someone else's API so the backend is very lightweight. We use Parse and a caching server, but that's about it.
Mostly TMDB but we also pull showtime data from another source. We're looking at augmenting our ratings data from other providers eg Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB

Off topic but why is Keanu Reeves's age is 60!?
You are the second person to point that out. I really should change that but I guess it's in reference to this? http://rs1img.memecdn.com/keanu-reeves-is-immortal_o_676589....
The app looks great! If you dont mind me asking, whats your dev stack.

Great app. Whose API is it? Your top review says you cover more local theaters than fandango, which was my initial thought.
Currently scraping for now, but we're going to move away from that.
Looks beautiful. Which services are you pulling your data from?

I didn't think RT's API was being maintained last I looked. I couldn't find any showtimes API. Are you scraping the data?
We're not pulling RT data yet so I haven't really looked.
