In my experience, when people are on their phone throughout the movie, it's usually a sign that they find the movie incredibly boring. Some people simply don't like watching 2 hours of people talking.

I disagree... I have seen so many people, my wife included, not letting the phone down for a good 15-20 minutes after the movie starts, by then, they are already lost so the movie never had a chance

If you find a movie boring, stop it... why ruin it for yourself and all around you by being on the phone throughout the duration of the movie?

"i can't follow the plot"

bitch, put the fucking phone down for longer than 30s and maybe you will
