Ratings and reviews

Free movies w/ONLY a library card and internet needed 🩷✅🆒🎊! I love the app with it's various movie selections: new, international, modern, indies, classics, and more! A movie buff🍿🎥? Bibliophile 😍📚? You must download this a.s.a.p. You'll receive uninterrupted, top-notch viewing with allotted tickets 🎟️🎟️, to use per which movie you watch. It's that easy! I'm recommending this to contrast/supplement any other (free/library) film app - a rare feat.

With this app, if you don't watch more than 10 movies per month, you do not need any other online movie service. Has so much, even recent films, that Netflix, Prime, Max and Hulu has, plus a ton of foreign, arthouse, documentary and film history selections that the above DON'T have. Possibly the best repository on the Internet. If you watch a lot of TV shows and movies, then you'll still want Kanopy as a supplement. PLUS, no ads!

Great if you want a stream that has an error every 5 seconds and buffers every 2 seconds, stops casting if you have it on the TV every 5 minutes, etc. Not even sure if I should be adding all my library cards as I have no idea if the catalogue is the same with every library as I get conflicting results Googling it and most of the stuff they have is public domain or just.. on every free streaming site anyway. So I can't see any difference. There's some good stuff, just can't watch it smoothly.
