Brilliant idea with great information

I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

However, things take a sharp turn when their father gets imprisoned solely on false charges and so the kids decide to set him free by doing whatever’s in their control. With the assistance of a local police officer, they go on a journey in the hope of saving their precious father and living a happy, peaceful life together as a family.

  1. A Christmas Prince (2017)

The main character of this movie is Amber who is a junior editor by profession. She finally gets a story she had been craving for so long. Missing Christmas festivities with her family, she flies to Aldovia to get insights into the life of a handsome playboy Prince named Richard who is next in line to the throne.

However, sadly a media conference at the Royal castle gets canceled when the prince fails to show up. Reluctant to head back without an authentic story, Amber decides to skip the media bus that is responsible for taking the editors back into town. Instead, she sneaks into the palace and pretends as if she is Princess Emily’s freshly hired American tutor who was supposed to arrive at the castle right after the holidays.

She ends up living in the palace as the prince’s younger sister’s teacher. During her stay, she strives hard to acquire as much information as possible about whether or not the prince is going to sit on the royal throne. A Christmas Prince is a lighthearted movie that must be enjoyed with family and friends.
