Hey!

You're super close. The problem is that sys.exit() should not take an argument for this challenge. Also, you need to call your function since it doesn't ask for the code to be inside of one.

import sys
def movie():
    start = input("Do you want to start the movie? ")
    if start.lower() == "n":
        sys.exit()
    else:
        print("Enjoy the show!")

movie()

Hope this helps!

Ty very much!
