Verdict
WHEP and CMX Cinemas both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of WHEP's written reviews are positive against 18% of CMX Cinemas's. CMX Cinemas's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 29 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
