The good and the bad parts

Many, many fun movies and new movies every few days, BUT: the bad parts. I found myself somehow subscribed (at higher price than I would pay for a subscription!) when I did not sign up to subscribe! I have not yet figured out how to unsubscribe even after lots of looking around the site so for now I am watching lots of movies while I research it. While subscribed, it has been fun watching. Amidst the many good things in the movies, where the acting is better than in some of the other apps! the worst thing is the horrible prejudice against adopted kids in families. They regularly get thrown out of families, cut off of inheritances as soon as the “real” kid is found, and/or get portrayed as evil. I have many adopted relatives and no one pays any attention to which ones are “real” and which ones are adopted!!!!! Everyone is loved and no one is evil! New plots are needed that show how real families treat adopted kids as loved, how adopted kids love and welcome other siblings- use something else to drive your plot so you do not dishonor all of the families with adopted kids!!!! Drive your plots with fewer evil step-mothers since this plot device is so cliche’. I love it when I come across plots that do not involve an evil stepmother or an evil adopted sibling. Movies without those trite plots are so refreshing!!!! Fortunately there are lots of them, and they are all great fun!

Update

UPDATE: The malfunction seems to have been corrected! Thank you so much!

First off- I’ve loved this app. However, a few days ago the app had an update. The “rewards” system appearance has changed, and although I can’t tell if there’s a difference in how many rewards we get, the system isn’t working. Let me explain- some of the ads now have a required interaction- ad for 10s, press next, ad for 10s, press next, ad for 10s, press next, ad for 10s, press done, and then you get the reward coins. The problem with this is that this particular type of ad is causing my phone to overheat and the app closes out (usually as the last ad is playing), causing me to have to start the ad over for my reward coins. Not only is it taking twice as long to obtain reward coins, but the overheating of my phone can’t be a good thing, plus I’ve noticed the battery draining drastically increase. In addition, the app has started to randomly close during a short video. After 4 days of this, I’m almost ready to be done altogether. My phone is brand new, so I know it isn’t the phone, and all of this started on the day that my update for this app was run. Without this issue, or with the correction of this issue, I would gladly raise my stars review to 5-stars.

Intriguing mini shows with bad acting and ads

I am a sucker for short stories like this, so when I saw that they were being made into films, I was so excited! I read a lot of reviews about the ads. To be honest, I didn’t really mind the ads. You will watch about a minute and a half of the movie before you have to watch an ad that is longer than the clip you watched from the movie. Yes it’s annoying, yes it’s an incentive for you to buy coins, yes it’s the same over and over, yes you can only watch 20 of them a day and then you have to wait. But to be honest, I really didn’t mind that. I came to expect it and it was still worth it with the film I was watching.
But then, after I continued on with it, I am almost at the tail end of my movie, and when I pulled it up, it now says I have to login using Facebook? I really don’t understand that, I’ve watched the majority of this movie and continued to watch their continual ads without having to log into my social media account. That’s when I deleted the app. I’m already watching thousands of ads and viewing them more and more then I’m even viewing the movie. You are getting all my viewing time, why do you want my social media?? 3 stars, because this stories are intriguing, but it comes with a very annoying price.
