# RottenTomatoes Box Office Demo
(Sample of your weekly project submission README)
This is an Android demo application for displaying the latest box office movies using the [RottenTomatoes API](http://www.rottentomatoes.com/). See the [RottenTomatoes Networking Tutorial](https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Rotten-Tomatoes-Networking-Tutorial) on our cliffnotes for a step-by-step tutorial.
**Time spent:** 5 hours spent in total
Completed user stories:
* [x] Required: User can view a list of latest box office movies including title, cast and tomatoes rating
* [x] Required: User can click on a movie in the list to bring up a details page with additional information such as synopsis
* [x] Optional: Placeholder image is used for movie posters loaded in from the network
**Notes:**
Spent some time making the UI work across multiple phone resolutions by playing around with the RelativeLayout.
**Walkthrough of all user stories:**
