Verdict
MUBI and FILU both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of FILU's written reviews are positive against 59% of MUBI's. FILU also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11). MUBI's advantage is ratings volume (11K vs 3) and chart position (#164 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
