Show HN: My first "full-stack" project, Cinematic

Why build another movie showtimes app? Because other apps are cluttered with a lot of ads, irrelevant info (crew listings?), and take a lot of taps to actually get at the good stuff, the showtimes!

I made what I wanted: a fast, simple, no-frills movie showtimes app.

Additionally, this is my first completed, full-stack project.

The showtimes are scraped and fed using an API delivered through a Sinatra app hosted on Heroku. The app is 100% designed and programmed by me, and uses no images in-app, except the navigation bar.

Try it out and let me know what you think.

Quick suggestion. Show the movie times screen as well on the web site. This is what it says after all "It's simple. Cinematic only shows the information you need when deciding to see a movie: the title, the length, the rating, and the showtimes. Nothing more"

I actually looked over the screen on the website twice to see if I missed the showtimes.
