Smooth, fast, efficient service.

Huge cross referenced list of actors, movies, directors. Great for quick checks of actor's filmographies or searching for a movie that had "Africa" in the title, etc.

It depends a lot on your viewing habits.

If you are a regular movie goer then just occasionally going to Blockbuster may be better. I like browsing the boxes at Blockbuster, and sometimes I'll just make a list and then pick them out on Netflix.

If you go out to zero movies, like me, it works very well.

It's cheap. I started with the $20 for 3 movies at a time and then dropped to $15 for 2 movies at a time. Even then, I would average about 8-10 movies a month. Great to catch up on movies and also to see a lot of obscure stuff.

The reviews are hit and miss.

In Southern California they opened a new distributor site and movies are sent out lightning fast.

Just released movies are usually backlogged. If you have one at the top of your list, your movies per month average will drop dramatically.

I cancelled my service. I was watching too many movies!
