I need to book some movie tickets.
What movie would you like to see?
I'm having trouble deciding between Backcountry, because my friend recommended it, and Family Jewels, because I heard Ryan Reynolds is in it and I love him. Can you tell me anything about them?
Backcountry is an outdoor documentary about Yosemite National Park and its natural wonders. Family Jewels is a romantic comedy about a European diamond dealer and his move across the Atlantic to follow a romance with a con woman.
Both sound like they could be good. Are either of them playing near me?
What city are you in?
I'm in Spring Hills, Kansas.
Both are playing in Spring Hills. Backcountry is available at the Cinemark Downtown, and Family Jewels is available at the AMC Holiday Theater.
When are they playing tomorrow night?
Backcountry's showtimes are 4:10pm, 7:30pm, and 10:15pm. Family Jewels' showtimes are 2:00pm, 5:00pm, and 8:10pm.
I could work with the 4:10 or the 5:00. Hmm. What do critics say about the movies? Are they both good?
They both are rated on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have given Backcountry a 91%, and Family Jewels a 69%.
Wow, that doesn't make it hard to decide. I think I'll see Backcountry in that case.
At the 4:10pm showing?
Yes, that would work.
How many tickets would you like?
Just one. I'm going to treat myself to some alone time.
Then I'll book you one ticket for tomorrow's 4:10pm showing of Backcountry at the Cinemark Downtown in Spring Hills, Kansas, if you're ready to book.
I'm ready. Please book it.
Your tickets are confirmed and they’ve been sent to your email address.
