Keep a record of your watching
Log a movie with a watched date, mark a rewatch, and add a rating. Your diary gives each viewing its own place instead of reducing your history to a single watched checkmark. Use your watchlist for films you want to come back to; logging and planning are different actions.
Give your favorites a place
Rate films on a five-star scale with half-star steps. A like can express affection without a rating. Your ranked Top 5 is a separate selection: a small, intentional introduction to the movies that matter most to you. Change those picks as your taste changes.
Write more than a score
Reviews let you explain what stayed with you. Flag spoilers so other readers can choose when to open them. Read public reviews on a film’s page before joining; sign in to write your own review, save a movie or update your diary.
Find people through shared taste
Movie ratings and Top 5 picks contribute to Taste Match alongside TV and music. Shared favorites can become a starting point for conversation. People discovery follows account, blocking and age eligibility rules; a high similarity score does not promise a connection.
Bring your Letterboxd history
The Letterboxd import starts with your exported ZIP. Review its preview before committing supported diary entries, ratings, likes, watchlist items and reviews. Unmatched rows are shown rather than replaced by guessed films. Import does not automatically create your Top 5.
