“No problems”

I've been using this site for a few years, no problem with security issues and if I do get a bad film, which is not that often, a refund is issued within 24 hours. Reading the other reviews it looks like others have had problems, but you take as you find, I will carry on using the site.

“I just checked and they're hosting a pirated version...”

I just checked and they're hosting a pirated version of a movie (Horrible Bosses 2) with embedded Asian subtitles, yet they mention nothing about the subtitles on their site. Basically you're buying stolen goods. The site might work for you, but you're not supporting the artists. I'd stay away. You might as well just torrent the movies because either way they're both stolen.

Stay away from this site. Everything might look good and you can download lots of movies cheaper than anywhere else, but I used this site thinking it was legit and a few weeks later someone was using my bank details to order takeaways. I would never recommend this site to anyone.

This site SUCKS! Most of the movies I have downloaded will not play all the way through. I have wasted $30 because that is the min that they will allow you to invest. I only put money into it because a friend recommended it to me. Most of the movies will not play all the way through because after 30 min the sound stops working. Then some of the movies will not download at all! Save your money. This is a hack!

I have NEVER had a movie download completely! Yet a friend has had no trouble. Very frustrating! Sit and watch a movie for 1 hour and 47 minutes only to have it stop. I've watched about 6 movies now never seeing the last 30 to 60 minutes!
Seems to be no support as no one has ever responded to my emails to help,

This site is hosting movies they do not have a license for. It is illegal! If you join this website you can get into trouble. The same is true about movieberry.com

Beware! Someone I know signed up for this website, lost all her credit without downloading anything and then 'someone' started spending on her credit card, even though it's new and she has only used it once elsewhere! Sure it's just coincidence...

"If" one can download the files, upon opening them one will discover they are "corrupted!"

As such, my recommendation is to NOT waste your time or money with filmous.com.

Filmous.com sucks! They have been charging my credit card long after the account was closed & now I have to cancel my credit card in order to stop the monthly charges! Stay away from filmous.com & movieberry.com, they are operated by the same Russian outfit. Filmous.com & Movieberry.com will both take your money & give little in return. Most of their files are low quality and many that they offer can NOT BE DOWNLOADED- but you will be charged anyway! Customer service does not exist at Filmous.com or Movieberry.com.
Stay FAR AWAY! Movieberry, movieberry.com, filmous, filmous.com, movie downloads

You can rarely actually fully download a movie off of this website! Every time I go to download a movie it only gets so far and then their server kills the download. I know, I know, all you techie whiz farts are thinking hey, this nim-whit probably doesn't know how to use his computer, or maybe he has an unreliable internet connection. Well, here's some news for ya, the site is crap, and I know computers like a niller wafer. Moral of the story, put that plastic back in your wallet and take some gosh darn advice from someone who knows a crap about crap.

Allegedly they give you unlimited downloads for 1 or 3 weeks. I paid and they took all my money; tried to contact them, no one answered. I didn't get the refund. I would avoid FILMOUS.COM and MOVIEBERRY.COM. Bunch of crooks, that is least I can say.

I have been trying to get my money out of filmous since January of this year. I've never been able to download anything watchable from them, and - despite assurances that my money (initially paid to Movieberry, then transferred to Filmous) would be refunded - I've had neither response nor refund from them.

This site is terrible! I learned about it through MP3Fiesta, which I have used for years (previously AllofMP3.com) with great sucess so I had high hopes for Filmous. Stupidly I purchased a membership for 70 US dollars. I have tried multiple times and have yet to be able to download a movie. Over the past three to four days the download does not even start. I continue to get a "server temporarily unavailable" message. I have sent multiple emails over the past several weeks to their tech support and have yet to get even one response. For $70 couldn't they at least respond to me? Steer clear of this site. It is garbage. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
