Hi, this is sumana sengupta, now not in Kolkata, but flying 35000 ft above sea level from Bangalore to mumbai on a Indigo flight .
As I have nothing to do for this 1:20 hrs, I am writing a review about a great site for buying movie tickets for most of the multiplexes in most of the cities around the country . I am using a PDA so I cannot write a lengthy review, anyway I am trying to-the-point as possible .
the site is Bookmyshow.com *
Bookmyshow.com unlike its predecessor in movietell.co.in has a more cleaner interface, easy to use, bug free and give you all details on seats available to pricing without any hassle for registration. This site is a clear model of business meets web 2.0 .
Now its biggest advantage is:
Tickets are less dearer than what you buy in queue . Yes this is true .
Generally in multiplexes like Adlabs, when you buy tickets online it charges Rs10 extra . but here you can get 15% commision .Yes THEY ARE PROVIDING 15% DISCOUNT ON ALL TICKETS SO YOU are PAYing LESS .
SO the biggest adv is PRICE IS LESS .
other adv:
when you buy a ticket online you have some adv as normal like you dont neet to stand in a queue .all these things are ok, now speciality of these site is its FAST,
and the interface is very good . those who can buy tickets from sites like irctc, yatra this site is much better than this .Simple, good interface.sometimes funny error messages( like if you want to buy tickets within 30 mins of the show it will say " sorry u missed the bus ")
Also you can have an estimation how fast the tickets are going to be filled up .
get the news of top 10, upcoming movies .
Another great adv is bandwidth wastage is much less.
Another great adv is from one site you can buy movies for all halls be it Fame, PVR, adlabs .
less time consuming .
Dadv:
the site should be verisign secured .
Ok I am almost done, I have to stop now . I am already at CSIA . bye .
