Hi. I'm hoping you can help me pick a good movie to see in theaters.

Would you like general movie recommendations, or do you have any preferences?
user
Well, I'm going on a first date with a guy, so I'm really nervous. He told me to choose the movie. I don't want anything lame, but I don't want anything too edgy.

So you would like a movie with an above-average audience rating, but not something with too mature a viewer rating? No horror like Brahms: The Boy II?

Yes. Thanks for saying it clearly. Nothing horror, nothing R-rated, but something that's not just a two-star generic flick. Sorry for being unclear. Like I said, I'm nervous.

That's alright. Would you like to see a family-friendly movie that's low-risk - for example, Sonic the Hedgehog - or would you prefer a romantic drama since it's a date?

Oh, a romantic drama sounds like a really good idea! Better than a family movie. I don't want him to think I'm too juvenile.

There is a new romantic drama playing in theaters now called The Photograph. It's about a woman whose discovery of a photograph in her late mother's possessions leads her to an unexpected connection with a photojournalist. It's only rated PG-13, and it has an average four-star rating across several websites. Does that sound appropriate, or shall I look for other options?

And what time would be best for you?

He works a little late, so we're meeting at 8:00 and then heading to the movie. I'd say nothing earlier than 8:30 to be safe. I don't want to be late, you know? And he might get out of work late too. So, yeah, 8:30 or later.

I don't know about that. The Premiere 14 is all the way on the other side of the city, and if we meet at 8, then we'd have to kind of waste over an hour before we got to see the movie. How long is the movie anyway?

By the time it's over, most places would be closed and we couldn't get dinner together. I guess we could do dinner before, but I'm worried we'd be rushed to make sure to get to the movie on time.
assistant
Would you like to book two tickets for The Photograph, or is the 9:30 timing at the Rio Rancho Premiere 14 too late for you?

I'm sorry, I think it's too late. None of the options work for us, so I'll pass on the movie. Maybe I'll see if he wants to do something else. Thanks anyway.

I'm sorry I couldn't help more. I hope your date goes well.
