Film4 Reviews

Film4, as the title suggests, is Channel Fours film channel, playing films pretty much all day long. Most of the films are older and well known and often delivered in weekly and monthly themes, like crime, war or comedy etc. At the moment it's the Eddie Murphy season (what happened to his career!). They do have newer films on although ...  Read the complete review

Film4 is a freeview channel owned and operated by channel 4 that, surprisingly enough, shows films. Hence the name I guess. Now, considering you have to pay for most movie channels, it's nice to know that channel is showing movies for free. While admittedly the daytime programming is a little dated for my personal taste, ...  Read the complete review

Film4 is simply a brillant TV channel, and one that I think far outdoes Sky's film channels. It became free a few years ago, and although this means you'll have to sit through adverts during your films, this isn't a problem with Sky+, for you can just start watching the film 15 minutes later and by the time the film ends, you'll be ...  Read the complete review

Film 4 is a free British TV channel, showing films (no real surprise there!) and is found on channel 300 when using freesat, but is also available on freeview and sky. The channel is owned and operated by Channel 4, and so is its partern channel Film 4+1, which shows programs on Film 4 one hour later. What sort of films are ...  Read the complete review

Film 4 is a channel which currently shows on Freeview and cable television. As the name states, this is a channel that provides films for viewers to watch. I often enjoy the late night movies that this channel offers, and often have some great films, but during the days, I am not really impressed with the choice of films. I ...  Read the complete review

What I like about Film 4- ~ They show some of the more obscure great films you would have never experienced otherwise ~ Because of this they have built up a brand name for thought provoking, cutting edge films, so movies shown on the channel are almost given the Film 4 seal of quality ~ I have loved ...  Read the complete review

When it was first launched you had to subscribe to Film 4 if you wanted to watch it however these days it is included in my basic cable TV package which I have with Virgin. I never saw the need to pay a subscription for it so never watched it in those days and going on the overall quality of the movies it has I'm glad I did ...  Read the complete review

On Virgin it is channel 444 with a one hour delay feed as well on 445 so eah movie has two start and finish times for you to select. I like this as the main ...  Read the complete review

I remember not so long ago when Film4 was a pay per view channel. I think the subscription was about £6 per month. Although I was never a subscriber I used to regularly check what films were showing on the channel at the time. There would always be something of interest. There would always seem to be at least one film that I would have ...  Read the complete review

Film Four is a dedicated movie channel run by chanel four and is available through digital and cable television services. Personnally I can’t imagine why people consider this channel to be worth the six pound a month that it costs to subscribe. The idea behind Film Four initially a good one, giving people access ...  Read the complete review

This is an absolutely brilliant channel, not many of my friends subscribe to it and we don’t unless there’s a really good month of film, especially in the cold winters night. But if you think about it works out cheaper than renting a film out say twice a week because for £5.99 per month you can get up ...  Read the complete review

FilmFour, is THE best channel on cable/sat. How many times have you watched a Bruce Willis film and thought "Oh how did he survive that", well the answer, apartfrom he was wearing his vest, is that it is Hollywood. Now, FilmFour on the other hand, is the prime of European films in which Bruce Willis would have died when a piano ...  Read the complete review

In order to receive FilmFour you have to pay an extra £6 a month, but this is without a doubt the most worthwhile £6 a month that can be spent when it comes to subscription TV channels. Believe it or not, despite the number of opinions on TV and films that I've written, I do have a life elsewhere! I don't get much of a ...  Read the complete review

I opted for this channel when I took out a digital subscription, having been enticed by the slick marketing. To be honest though, it's not my cup of tea, and I've hardly watched it, so it's been a complete waste of money for me. There always seems to be something that I'd rather watch on another film channel. ...  Read the complete review

In my opinion Film Four is one big rip off. Have you noticed that channel 4 doesn’t show any decent films any more, they were always showing some really great films? Then it stopped, and they bought out Film Four. Basically all they have done is put the films on Film Four, then they are charging people for the ...  Read the complete review

For the first two months you subscribe to Film Four provides what it promises "The Best Films You Know, and those you dont", however their schedule gets very repatative and I think that they are not updated thoroughly enough. This said, for only a fiver a month it does provide an exceptional variety of movies from all over the ...  Read the complete review
