You may also watch the cult series: "Friends", "The Big Bang Theory", "Office" and "Clinic ".

Overall impression:

For me, "KinoPoisk" has long turn into a home entertainment system - we have a large number of films and TV series, and what is not part of the subscription can be bought or rented. Those that do not want to buy films at full price will get promotional codes (there are quite a few of them) and acquire several films for any ruble. The DeepDive function (recognition of actors and characters within the frame) is useful.

A selection of voice acting and arsenic intoxication subtitles is an obvious plus. "KinoPoisk" also cooperates using the studios "Cubic in Cuba", "Courage Bambey" and with Syenduk. Because of the service, not too sometime ago, I completely switched to watching films in the initial language, if possible.

"Amediateka"

Simply how much does to join cost:

Month - 599 ₽
3 months - 1499₽
A few months - 2699 rubles
Year - 4999₽
A subscription provides access to just about all content except for a couple of TVOD titles.
What's as part of the subscription:

The service features hundreds of TV series, and also films, many of which are exclusive documentaries which you will be unable to enjoy anywhere else.

The flagship projects of "Amediateka" would be the premiere compilation of the primary foreign studios, which are discharged simultaneously with everyone: hits from HBO, Showtime / CBS, Starz / Lionsgate, BBC, Sky so on. "Keepers", "Dark Principles", "Why Women Kill", "Catherine the Great" - this all turned out for the service within the fall. Plus, proven hits can be obtained: "Bet on Thrones", "Sex plus the City", "Wiretapping", "Chernobyl ".

Overall impression:

Large selection, many high-profile premieres - from your last I looked at the Amediatek "Chernobyl", "Why Women Kill" and "Euphoria&rdquo ;.Conveniently, efficiently - everything is enough in my opinion, I have not had any complaints.

Okko

Simply how much does to join cost:

Okko has 11 different subscriptions depending on the kind of content, like Movies and TV Shows, Best Cartoons, Amediateka. Shiny things cost from 99 to 599 rubles per month. Yet it's easier to take notice of the subscription packages: "Optium" costs 399 rubles per 30 days, "Premium" - 799 rubles.

Precisely what is part of the subscription:

Optium includes eight separate subscriptions - 20,000 films and TV series, but without Amediateka. Flagship TV shows of HBO and other sorts of studios, timeless TV shows like LOST and Clinic, quality films (although not the most recent ones) - this can be acquired using one of the subscriptions. Perhaps the main plus is that most submissions are conveniently divided into various collections.

Unfortunately, perhaps the Premium package doesn't provide accessibility entire library. Digital releases quickly can be found in Okko, but you spend for them. Some "Avengers: Endgame" - for money, "Mad Men" - several hundred much more about top. Movies and TV shows is usually rented in lieu of bought.

Overall impression:

Okko provides a lot of interesting content and I liked the division into thematic collections. As when the task of deciding on a set with the evening becomes easier. Yes, new items has to be bought, but over time they still get in the subscription. You know, Netflix also has not got movies right following your cinemas. Nevertheless the service has one notable drawback: if you do not register for the Amediateki package, then the large layer of high-quality serials disappears. Okko has a lot of films, but Amediateka appears to be in charge of the series. Which isn't contained in the "Optium" subscription.
