your personal movie database
A million movies and nothing to watch! We get it. It’s movie night and you can’t decide what to watch or where to watch it. You’re hopping around from streaming service to google and back to another streaming service. You’ve seen this movie, and you’re not sure about that one. A movie comes to mind but you’ve no idea where you can watch it. You wish there was just one application where everything was organized.
Introducing reelistr, your personal movie database where you can keep track of movies you’ve watched and want to watch! Create customized lists, review movies, and find where to watch your favorite movies!

Users will have access to a database of movies through which they can browse through, search and see “what’s coming soon and trending”.
Member users can edit their account information, create lists, add movies they have watched to their library, add movies they want to watch to their watchlists, and create customized lists to organize movies into “collections”.
