Review summary

Users praise the ARROW app for its fantastic collection of cult and niche films, great value, and quality bonus content, making it ideal for film enthusiasts. The app interface is appreciated for being user-friendly and visually appealing. However, multiple users report video playback problems including lag and interruptions, issues with watch progress syncing, occasional device compatibility challenges, and a desire for more frequent content updates. Despite these drawbacks, ARROW remains a favored streaming service for fans of genre and cult cinema.

Excellent selection of cult, horror, and niche films including hidden gems and classics.
Great value for money with a large, diverse movie library and frequent new content additions.
High-quality extras such as audio commentaries, documentaries, and special features like those found in Blu-Ray releases.
User-friendly and well-designed app interface that is aesthetically pleasing and easy to navigate.
Good customer support and community engagement, including podcasts and active social media presence.

Cons

Video playback issues such as lagging, blackouts, and poor performance on some devices, notably TVs and certain tablets.
Problems with keeping track of watch progress and resume list synchronization across devices.
Content library could benefit from more frequent updates, especially in genres like horror, sci-fi, and exploitation.
Issues with app compatibility and functionality on some devices like Google TV, Nvidia Shield, and Roku, including movies appearing locked despite subscription.
The video player struggles with high-quality streams and resizing, occasionally leading to a poor viewing experience.

2024-12-17	Ju*****	Best movies going, seemless experience on the app, only minor issues with casting to TV easily remedied by re casting.

2024-09-08	Ja*****	It's a really well put together app, and the filmography has a few gems that I'm interested in.

2024-08-31	DA*****	Insanely good choice of films, hidden gems, cult classics, curiosities and the straight out weird! In addition, some absolute classics and genre defining films for you to enjoy! Also, get involved with Dan and Martin on the Arrow podcast as a side note!

2023-10-24	R *****	I already buy blu rays off arrow and decided to try the player on a whim. I am glad to report that after my free 14 day trial ends I will be paying for the full subscription. Great value for money. One star removed because the resume list is very bad at recording what I've watched. If I decide to watch something on my computer it never keeps track of my place in a movie.

2023-07-28	Jo*****	It's a cool streaming service but has technical issues, the films I watch are constantly being interrupted when the picture black outs every so often that lasts a few seconds but is ongoing and ruins the viewing experience overall

2023-06-09	Do*****	I do have a few gripes, but for the most part it's ok. Gripe number 1. The content needs to be updated more often. Specifically Horror, sci fi, and exploitation. Nothing wrong with the content you have,I just wish there were more to choose from. Gripe number 2. This is my main concern. I can use the app on my phone and stream it to my tv via Chromecast no problem. But when I try and use the app on my TV, the movies are laggy. They never work correctly. I hope this gets fixed.

2023-02-11	Jo*****	I grew up with a love of horror films since I was four years old. This app/group has brought together a lot of classics (lesser classics, some well known, and hidden genre gems alike) into one app. Assuming the library keeps growing, this app will remain one of my most used. Thank you for the quality product. One question though. I got the Blu-Ray of Versus/Ultimate Versus through the Arrow imprint. Why isn't Versus available to stream on the service? I assume licensing issues.

2023-02-02	Jo*****	Incredible selection of movies, fantastic customer support on Twitter, easy to use app... what more could you want? My favourite streaming service by far. Not only do you get some real gems of cult and horror cinema, but you often get audio commentaries and special features from the Blu Ray releases also. More than happy to support Arrow!

2022-12-08	Ri*****	Wonderful range of old and new cult movies and series from all over the world. New content added each week. Also documentaries, interviews and commentaries on some movies. It's great value for money and I never run out of things to watch.
