annoying kid

You are in the cinema watching the lastest movie, say Batman. A kid has been making noises from time to time but it hasn't been bothering you much because you sit relatively far away from the family and the sound of the movie pretty much drowns his noise. Occasionally, people sitting around the family "shhh" the kid and the parents shut him out. Halfway into the movie, he becomes uncontrollably and it is disturbing everyone in the theatre. The people around the family has become tired of warning them and the parents are not doing anything. The best part of the movie is running and there are no staff members around. What will you do?

Are there any mistakes?
Thanks.

Hi New2grammar,

There is, of course, more than one way of writing this passage, and here's my take:

You are in the cinema watching the latest movie, (let's) say Batman. A kid has been making some noise from time to time, but it hasn't been bothering you too much because you are sitting relatively far away from the family, and the sound of the movie is pretty much drowning out hi
