It’s very easy to use, I’m dyslexic and I love reviewing movies and shows on this app. There are groups you can join for themed monthly challenges or You can join/make a group to talk about anything and everything. ### 5/5 — Movie reviews with friends *2026-06-10* Great app for reviewing Movies and Television. Fun social media app too! ### 5/5 — Exceptional Rating System *2026-06-10* Have a better breakdown of movie/tv ratings. ### 5/5 — The future of movie reviews *2026-02-11* Best movie review app out there! ### 4/5 — Almost an Alternative *2025-10-18* I’ve been using Letterboxd for a couple years now and love it. But it’s got a ton of woke users and administration. This alternative is a great idea and can’t wait to fill it out and make new friends. However, there’s a lot missing that makes the experience on Letterboxd a great deal of fun. Its search engine is better, keyboard allows bold and italics functions; and above all, LB’s Top 4 movies feature. A complaint on LB is that it isn’t a Top 5. So, Criticless, please add the Top 4 or 5 feature for our profiles! Use LB a little more to incorporate some of its strengths. To keep from being as lame as Goodreads. Thankfully, yall said in a recent live stream that updates are coming in phases. Can’t wait and best of luck. See yall on there. ### 5/5 — Better Than Letterbox *2025-08-02* The community, the groups, the reviews, the engagements! This app is great to open after viewing any show or movie and putting your no bull review on here and having great engagements on it. ### 1/5 — It’s kind of a cult *2025-05-16* Full of weirdos and gatekeepers. Pretty sure the heads of the place can see in your private groups, and it’s always the same 20 people. A couple of them are nice but the owners really only care about paid users. ## Frequently asked questions about Criticless ### What is Criticless?
