Here in western europe, such behaviour would be VERY frowned upon. You go to the theater to see the movie on a big screen with good sound. And you shut the hell up from the moment the lights go out. You don't talk, you don't shout, you don't applaud. Laughing and crying are socially acceptable if not too loud. If you want to talk, go to a bar. If you want to talk during a movie, buy your own projector. Want to scroll on your phone? Go to the bathroom. But in the theater, you sit down and shut the hell up. At least here, in quiet and peace-loving (and slightly boring) western europe :)
