This was after the mgr. agreed that they would be a problem when they entered the theater. They had containers of booze and were dropping their cans on the floor and allowing them to roll down the floor. Some other patrons mentioned they could smell the booze on them as they moved by them to change seats.

These two entered the movie after it started and left before it was over, as though they were there only to disrupt others. They were also using foul language but after my wife told the mgr. about the language she said, "Well, it is an R rated movie." But these two were talking loudly and using obnoxious profanity.

The movie was "Sex Tape." After the second time out to talk to the Mgr., my wife asked for a refund or a ticket for another movie. The mgr. at first was reluctant to offer anything and said if she gave the refund, my wife would have to leave the theater right then and asked for her ticket stub. My wife had thrown her stub away but she asked why she would have to leave and miss the movie while the punks are able to stay. Finally, the mgr. capitulated and offered a ticket for another movie but our 5 relatives got nothing.

Considering all the violence that has occurred in theaters you would hope the mgmt would be more considerate of the patrons and less so to scofflaws.
I hate to have movie experiences like this.
