Recently, it seems as if every movie streaming site I come across is more of the same. There are not many free movie streaming sites out there that are doing anything differently these days. The sites that I visit offer minimal expectations, which would be providing me with movies to stream for free. I have seen just about every free movie streaming site on the web; nowadays, it takes quite a bit to impress me.
It seems like every website I visit is exactly the same. I can't tell most of them apart half the time. There are always mediocre and unimpressive site designs, movies that are sourced from sketchy sites, and enough ads to drive a man crazy. Even in terms of content, I feel like it's always the same kind of big budget Hollywood style movies that are most prominently featured. How many action movies can one person take in a lifetime?
I find it hard to enjoy streaming movies when there are not that many new and different options out there. I want something that will really get me excited about streaming movies again. Isn't that something you could offer?
The people behind Free Movies Cinema certainly don't think so. Not only does Free Movies Cinema sidestep all of the usual pitfalls of a free movie streaming site, but they have also managed to create something unique in the streaming space. Free Movies Cinema offers an intuitive and enjoyable user experience, great site design, thousands of movies, few ads (relative to the typical free movie streamer), and some very cool and novel features that I've never seen on a movie streaming site before.
Free Movies Cinema is a website that truly expands my view of what a free movie streaming site could be. It transcends the realm of the traditional streamer to become something else. I mean, sure, it is a movie streaming site in the sense that, obviously, its main focus is providing users with free movie streaming. But, in addition to this, it is also an online community of cinema lovers; it is a massive archive of rare, independent, and underground films; it is a lifestyle blog; it is a free TV series streaming site; the list goes on and on.
Free Movies Cinema is a great site for movie buffs, filmmakers, and those who appreciate the arts. It features a wide variety of movies that are not found on most other sites, making it a valuable resource for serious movie buffs.
I would like to take you on a tour of one of the grandest free movie streaming sites of all time. Without further ado, I give you Free Movies Cinema.
History
I find it frustrating that I cannot learn more about the site, where it originated from, or who started it. All I could determine is that it was first launched in 2006 and has since become quite successful.
Design
The site makes a great first impression - it is easy to see, intuitive, dynamic, user-friendly, and very well organized. Often times when I visit a free movie website like this one I become quickly overwhelmed due to information overload; they tend to try and cram as many movies onto the page as possible. I, however, am not a fan of clutter. I like a clean, neat, and minimalistic website. Free Movies Cinema is all of these things.
Finally, in the very bottom of the page is a thin black bar with ?Web Hosting? and other important links listed.
The white and baby blue site menu bar at the top of the page introduces itself in three sections. The midnight blue (almost black) segment offers featured ?Fresh new movies.? The white background again interrupts the dark blue for quick interruption, bearing the latest popcorn recipe. Finally, in the very bottom of the page is a thin black bar with ?Web Hosting? and other important links listed.
The site keeps alternating between popular documentaries and blog posts, but overall it is one of the most well-designed and user-friendly movie sites I have ever seen.
After clicking on a film to stream it, the media player is big and sleek. The background is a seamless black, making it have the appearance of a faux cinema mode without needing to toggle to one, and there are a handful of recommended movies found at the bottom of the page. Movies that you might also like can be found based on the movie in question.
Content and Features
Earlier I promised you that I would go into greater depth regarding the ways in which the content offerings of Free Movies Cinema are different from your typical free movie site. For starters, Free Movies Cinema does not source its movies from shady host sites. Instead, every movie on this site (with the exception of those that Free Movies Cinema hosts itself) is taken from either YouTube or Vimeo. Not only does this result in a unique index of movies, but it also means that playback will be smooth and video quality will be high.
One of the things that sets Free Movies Cinema apart from other movie streaming sites is the focus on short films, art films, and indie movies. If you're looking for a site where you can stream mainstream movies, this is not the right place for you. However, if you enjoy exploring new filmmakers, writing styles, directors and up-and-coming actors, Free Movies Cinema will be right up your alley.
Each movie on the site is given a rating based on the number of likes it has received. There is a corresponding trophy symbol attributed to the movie accordingly. For movies with 10 to 99 likes, a green flame will be displayed, and for movies with 10,000+ likes, a yellow diamond will be displayed. This shorthand, once it becomes familiar, is a fun and quick way to gauge the popularity and quality of a given film.
This site offers thousands of free movies as well as series, guided binge-watching sessions, a regularly updated cookbook of unique popcorn recipes to accompany and enhance your film viewing experience, and even a film blog that takes fascinating angles on all things related to cinema. There is never a dull moment when watching Free Movies Cinema!
Mobile and Desktop Experience
Unfortunately, there is not a mobile app for Free Movies Cinema. That being said, the mobile version of the website is every bit as user-friendly and smooth as the desktop site. Viewing in your mobile browser will not be a problem whatsoever.
I would like to remind everyone that Free Movies Cinema deserves awards for how few ads it uses. Although there are ads before and during some of the videos, those are not the fault of Free Movies Cinema. YouTube and Vimeo are to blame for placing ads before and during their videos. Please continue doing a great job at reducing the number of ads on your site!
