Ratings and reviews

Used to be a pretty solid app but not so much anymore. Too much is locked behind a pay wall now when it wasn't before. Want to filter out recommendations for content you've already seen or saved to your watchlist? Better pay up. You want to sort your watchlist by how much the app recommends everything for you? Again, better pay up. I saw on someone else's review the developers said they "work hard" to maintain "95% of functionality for free." Yeah, no. More like 5% for free and 95% for premium.

Downloaded to get movie recommendations, but I really like everything about it. I like reading little reviews from people who aren't professional critics. I like that you can rate it without leaving a review. I really like that it tells you what the movie is streaming on, and it notifies you if a movie on your watchlist is now streaming somewhere, although sometimes it's not accurate/outdated and the movie isnt actually on Prime even though it was listed there. I appreciate the effort lol.

Quite nice. Some movies are missing, especially when it comes to old movies and European cinema, that I know of. Their recommendation system is not great? I've found more movies thought their standard rating process. Also, there are some bugs. Sometimes pressing on notifications don't lead you to the app. You can go from Friends to Notifications but once you're there you can't go back to friends unless you close the app. Edit: the bugs are gone with the new update!
