this is still the best site for adding and rating movies and tv shows and anime. it is not perfect. still on beta. but for what the developer has done for the site, i consider this a great site.

I hoped that Simkl would have checklists of movies to watch like iCheckMovies.com, but I did not see this feature.

Best movie review site I've been on. I normally research movies before going ahead to watch them and so far, this site hasn't failed me

It's ok, but it's too flashy and slow for me. I only tried it for a couple of months though, will update if it grows up on me (or if I abandon it completely).
