App Review Result
While you may not find the latest movie releases on Popcornflix, you can still find a good selection of films to watch. I enjoyed browsing through the app and finding films that I never heard of but would enjoy watching. Most of the movies are "B-list" but contain well-known actors.
Keep in mind that there is advertising with this app. You will get one or two short commercials in the beginning of the movie and an ad at the bottom of the screen. Once you begin watching the movie, there are no interruptions or commercials during the movie.
I think that this is a great app to use while on the go. There are many selections to choose from so there is a little something for everyone to enjoy. The best part is that it is totally free and requires no subscription or log-in to use it.
