The page by default loads the popular movies from the TMDB database and caches it to coredata for offline usage, when the app is offline an bar is show to indicate that the current movie data is cached data. Using network monitoring if there is nodata the app reload the movies list.
The page loads the cached movie details when the live data api call fails for any reason, an offline bar is shown when the displyed data is cached data. The page auto reloads the movie details when the device is back online by monitoring the network status.
