Matinee - Movie Night

Functional Development

About this app

Can't decide what to watch? Matinee turns "what should we watch tonight?" into the best part of the evening.

PERSONALIZED RECOMMENDATIONS
Matinee learns your taste from the films and shows you love and surfaces movies you'll actually want to watch — not just whatever's trending. The more you rate, the sharper your For You feed gets, blending your history with people who share your taste. It even digs up hidden gems the big apps bury.

MOVIE NIGHT — DECIDE TOGETHER
Gather everyone into a Movie Night lobby (join by code or QR), then let the group vote. Two quick rounds whittle a big list down to one winner everyone's happy with — no more endless scrolling or "I don't care, you pick." It's a game, and it ends with a film and a plan.

YOUR WATCHLIST, EVERYWHERE
Build one watchlist and reach it from your phone, tablet, and TV. Sort by what's new, what's leaving, runtime, or your predicted rating. See where every title is streaming — and always get a rent-or-buy option so a missing subscription never stops the night.

WATCH ON THE BIG SCREEN
Matinee is on Apple TV and Fire TV too. Pair your phone in seconds, pick who's watching, and browse, vote, and launch straight into your streaming apps.
