Correct Answer: watch an movie


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The error is in the article before "movie". The indefinite article an is used before words that begin with a vowel sound, while a is used before words that begin with a consonant sound. Since the term movie is pronounced with a consonant sound so, the article a should precede it.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Would you like to watch a movie tonight at eight?
