You can also tap Review or log, which lets you rate the movie out of five, write a review, and also add it to your film-watching diary so you know the date you watched it on.

Letterboxd has a huge community, so be sure to browse other people's reviews and connect with your friends so you can compare what you've seen. It also has an iOS app, which makes Letterboxd one of the best iPhone apps to track movies seen.
