The question is, is this movie worth paying what it costs to catch it
in a theater?  To answer that question, you read reviews and watch
trailers.

A movie ticket price in Columbus, Ohio:

$8.50

$8.50 x 2 (for me and my partner) = $17

2 tickets + popcorn + beverages + gas would add up to nearly $30
easily, whereas you can wait till the movie becomes available on DVD
and rent it -- if you wait long enough to rent it from a library, it's
free!
