I agree the overreaction seems clear, but texting in some was worse than talking because the phone screen is distracting for a longer/wider area.

When I was a movie-goer sometimes I’d end up sitting behind someone who was distracting in one way or another (e.g. a “talker”). I’d just get up and move to a different seat; I came to relax and enjoy a movie, not to get worked up.
