FilmAffinity is a personalized movie and TV show rating and recommendation app, a social network for film and series lovers, and a prescriptive platform for movies, TV series, and documentaries where you can discover the opinions of users with similar tastes, based on user affinity (which FilmAffinity calls “soulmates”). In addition to rating films, the app allows users to write movie and TV reviews, create lists of films, series, and documentaries, and see the opinions and ratings of their friends. You can also check theatrical releases in different countries, as well as find out which movies, series, and documentaries are being released on various streaming platforms in each country. Additionally, you can view cinema showtimes. For every movie, series, miniseries, documentary, TV film, short film, and music video, the app displays full cast and crew information, along with key details such as the title in each country, original title, running time, genre, synopsis, awards, trailers, and more. FilmAffinity also provides award winners and nominees from major film awards and festivals around the world, as well as up-to-date news about cinema and streaming platforms, covering both past and upcoming releases. The app also allows users to send private messages to one another.
