Flix is an app that allows users to browse movies from the The Movie Database API.

• [x] (10pts) User can view a list of movies (title, poster image, and overview) currently playing in theaters from the Movie Database API.

• [x] (2pts) Views should be responsive for both landscape/portrait mode.

  • [x] (1pt) In portrait mode, the poster image, title, and movie overview is shown.
  • [x] (1pt) In landscape mode, the rotated alternate layout should use the backdrop image instead and show the title and movie overview to the right of it.

• [x] (2pts) Display a nice default placeholder graphic for each image during loading

• [x] (2pts) Improved the user interface by experimenting with styling and coloring.

• [x] (2pts) For popular movies (i.e. a movie voted for more than 5 stars), the full backdrop image is displayed. Otherwise, a poster image, the movie title, and overview is listed. Use Heterogenous RecyclerViews and use different ViewHolder layout files for popular movies and less popular ones.

When building this app, the most challenge part is how to align image size to fill the entire ImageView and match image size among all images within different ViewHolder.
