My 14 year old niece is terrible. She can't watch a whole movie without pulling out her phone to look about reviews, find out what else the actors have been in, and whatever other information there is. Then she gets side-tracked by looking up related things, to the point that she doesn't actually end up watching the movie.

Constant access to information is both addictive and exhausting.
