How NOT to act in a movie theatre

To the family at Lakeshore Cinema at the 1pm showing of Sing today: shame on you. You acted like you were the only people in the mostly packed theatre today. Your son spent 20 minutes jumping up and down on the spot, another 20 minutes running up and down the aisles and stairs, and the remainder of the movie was spent talking loudly.
Now don't get me wrong, I get it. It's a kids movie, there's going to be some noise and interruptions.
One of the interruptions absolutely should NOT have been you (the mom) pulling your phone out in the middle of the movie to TAKE A VIDEO OF YOUR SON SHOWCASING HIS BAD BEHAVIOUR. I can honestly say pretty much everyone in that theatre today spent two hours gritting their teeth and watching you completely ignore your very distracting child and everyone else around you who paid money to enjoy that movie today.
I do hope you see this, and I do hope you think ahead next time you decide to take your son to the movies.
Can my child handle sitting still through a movie without greatly disturbing others?
If not, either wait until you can watch the movie in the comfort of your own home, or take a moment to pull your son aside and tell him he needs to respect the rules of the movie theatre (as do you, captain snapchat) and if he cannot then there will be consequences.
Shame on you for being totally oblivious to those around you.
