I was a MoviePass subscriber for about 4 months. But I noticed that international movies and few theaters are blocked, can't reserve tickets ahead of time as per TOS. With all these restrictions I didn't even watch any movies for a couple of months. So I just cancelled and subscribed to Sinemia (I am in no way related to this service).

Never heard of Sinemia. How is it different?

  Looking at their plans (https://www.sinemia.com/new-plans/ https://www.sinemia.com/new-plans/) it's capped at 2 or 3 movies a day, available at any theater and in any format. You can also apparently buy advance tickets, which is a huge limitation for MoviePass. Their business model seems more sustainable than MoviePass, too. Well, at least when it's not heavily reduced due to the Oscar promo.

    Per MONTH*, not per day. That’s a huge difference to MoviePass.

      Yes, which makes it far more sustainable.

  The main advantage is reserving tickets via fandango or any other website that sells the tickets. Personally we didn't watch more than 2 movies a month in theaters, so this works great for us.
