I want to book a couple movie tickets, but I need help deciding which movie.
assistant
Would you like a list of movies currently playing?
user
No, I have a couple ideas, but I want your input. My boyfriend recommended one called Shuttered, but he didn't really tell me about it, and we don't always have the same tastes.
