MUBI

MUBI offers curated film streaming for viewers who treat choosing a film as part of the pleasure of watching it. Its mix of arthouse cinema, discoveries and established filmmakers sits alongside film criticism and publishing. The appeal is an editorial point of view: a place to follow cinema beyond the familiar franchises and television seasons.

Films play through a browser, mobile apps and supported television devices. Offline mobile downloads make selected viewing possible away from a connection, while casting brings playback to a larger screen. Availability depends on local rights, so a film discussed in the database or Notebook should not automatically be assumed to be included in a country's streaming catalogue.

Key benefits:

• Curated selection gives film discovery a recognisable editorial perspective across the catalogue.
• Notebook criticism adds essays and discussion for viewers interested in cinema culture.
• Offline downloads let supported mobile devices carry films for viewing without connectivity.
• Living room playback supports compatible smart televisions, streaming players and casting options.
• Two simultaneous screens allow viewing together or separately within the advertised device allowance.
• MUBI GO adds cinema visits through a separate offering in supported locations.

The service is operated on behalf of MUBI UK Limited, with a London contact address. This is a European company outside the EU, rather than a promise of EU-only hosting or anonymous viewing. Its privacy policy describes account processing and personalised recommendations, and explains how subscriber information is used.

Streaming requires a paid subscription after any eligible trial; the advertised introductory trial lasts seven days. Prices and catalogues vary by country. MUBI GO also has geographic limits, so its cinema benefit needs checking locally before choosing a membership.
