Departures
April 24, 2017

This series Departures is the best series you have on Netflix. I would like to see more like this. The way to see the world as it is.

Streamlining and thiefs
April 14, 2017

They slow it down, then display problems. Happened this year and years ago. Cheap. I can go any where, and there streamling is by far better. I'm done tomorrow. One computer, one tv. They charged me for 4 tv's and one computer

Thumbs Down
April 13, 2017

I strongly dislike the thumbs up and thumbs down option. Why did they have to replace the ratings? It made finding a quality movie much easier. My favorite movies that I keep on my list have a match rate of 60 percent or lower. I find the new rating system ineffective.

Buyer Beware
April 10, 2017

I know the company is doing what they can to repair their image, but I am one that probably will never be back from when they doubled their fees.

Good choise
April 10, 2017

I don`t think you will read this review when choosing Netflix - nowadays everyone knows what it is. Their unique shows and other choices for the price are excellent. Can`t tell what the alternative is

A year ago, I would have given them a "Highly Recommended" review - now, not even close. I used to *love* Netflix - via the online browsing it was easy to use, easy to see which movies I've already watched, and it showed ratings (via 1 to 5 stars) for each movie/show. I have had a Netflix account for over 10 years. However, I have in the last few months given up my DVD account because since they split from Netflix.com and became DVD.com, I did not receive my DVD's in a timely fashion (they started slowing down the turn-around time from 1-2 days to 3-4 days) nor do they receive them and credit my account (as having been received so I get the next DVD) as they take several days to receive them now (from 1-2 days to 3-5 days!). I called to complain several times, and because it got worse instead of better, I finally cancelled the DVD portion of my account.

I am also becoming less and less enamored with the streaming side as well. They keep making changes to it, and they aren't good changes. When you go online to view and select movies to put in your queue (PC-based for me as I don't do iPhone stuff), the whole selection process has changed. You used to be able to see the synopsis, a short list of cast, the year it was put out, the star rating, whether it was in your queue or not, and if you'd already watched it. The star-rating system is gone now, so you don't see the rating on the show - instead, you have to watch it (before I wouldn't waste my time with 1-star movies) and if it's a bad movie, you've just wasted your time - plus, you can't rate it with stars: it is either a 'thumbs up' or thumbs down' rating. Additionally, when browsing the movies/shows, you can no longer tell if you've already watched something as the notifications for that are gone now as well. For me, this is basically one thing that separated the other online streaming providers from Netflix: the rating system and the ability to tell if you've already watched it or not.

Having said all that, I will say that Netflix's customer service is tops - too bad the online/browsing experience has changed for the worse.:-( I also gave ratings (below in Detailed Ratings) based on how the service is NOW.

I'm now going to be looking at alternatives to Netflix such as Amazon or something else more user-friendly. Netflix needs to learn that there is just some things you don't mess with, and that is the user-interaction in the PC browsing mode. Bring back the old style, or continue to lose customers!

Netflix Not worth the money
April 9, 2017

I don't get it, Netflix has raised there price to $9.99 a month yet you can't get any good movies. Even if you do get a good (new) release it is no longer new. This use to be a great place to get good movie. Now you pay more, and get crap for movies. With the price of going to the movie theaters so expensive this was a good way to get the same moves at home for a good price. Not any more. I am not a happy camper.

Net flix
April 9, 2017

Net flix is really kind of TV movies substitute, so you can watch whatever you want and many movies per day for just 10 dollars per month or less and there is a mobile application, so whenever you are and feel boring you can open your mobile and watch movies.

Love it, but hate waiting
April 9, 2017

I was very late to the Netflix universe, and love so many shows and comedy specials. Top quality and much better than cable, not to mention so much more affordable.
My only complaints are that it seems you have to literally wait a year for your show to come back with new episodes, and there movie selection is about 10 years behind

BAD! New review system. Yuck
April 8, 2017

Don't like thumbs up and thumbs down movie reviews. I like five stars. Period makes it much more difficult to find a movie on Netflix site. Looking for alternative. This is enough to make me move. We've been an avid Netflix subscriber for many many years, need to rethink that now

Same movies, every month
April 7, 2017

We went overseas for about 3 months, when we came back, the same new releases were still there, no new anything really except for some movies in other languages nobody has heard of here.
They used to be great, but now, not worth it
I like to watch documentaries and have watched almost every single one that interest me, and they have put 5 new ones in the past year. Sorry, but this is not a great thing Netflix, not worth what you charge me each month to keep watching the same videos over and over.
