Free Movies Cinema

Free Movies Cinema lets you watch free online movies categorized in popular genres. You'll find independent and public domain movies listed as thriller, adventure, horror, and other types.

In addition to movies are a handful of free TV shows you can stream directly from the website.

Streaming Movies

There are over a dozen genres to choose from, including fan films, war, science fiction, Western, documentary, stand-up comedy, and action. Some movies are sectioned off in a Short Films category, or you can browse the hundreds of titles listed in the Features section.

If you're not sure what to watch, the Playlists page is a good place to start. It collects the films in topics, like zombie movies, classics, sci-fi shorts, and directorial film debuts from icons of the movie industry. There's also the Feature Movies page. The small handful of series are on a single page.

Use the search bar at the top of the page to find titles by keyword or to browse by year.

A few of the movies we've seen here include Crow, Platoon Leader, Tart, Buckskin, Warning Shot, Princess of Thieves, The Golden Retrievers, Kung Fu Chefs, and Alien Predator. There are plenty of others, too, both old and new.

Video Quality

Movie quality ranges from a very low 144p to much better ones like 720p and 1080p. It depends, in part, on how old the movie is, which, unfortunately means you won't have much control over video quality.

Where Free Movies Cinema Gets Its Movies

Films are verified by the original authors or production companies as being freely available for viewing. Many of these are actually movies hosted on YouTube.

Whether they're streamed directly from Free Movies Cinema or are just embedded from other websites, they're all freely available to watch.

Other Ways to Get Free Movies

A lot of FMC's collection is short films, and since it relies heavily on YouTube for hosting, some of the movies get removed without getting updated on the Free Movies Cinema site. It's also unclear how often new movies are added since there isn't a way to see recently added films and the site's social media pages and blog are infrequently updated.

For some alternative sites, check out Crackle, Vudu, The Roku Channel, Tubi, and Freevee. Those services have a much larger collection, update the selections more often, and usually have fairly high-quality streams.
