Yes. A friend recommended letterboxd.com last year. I love its features and I keep on using it whenever I watch a movie.
Sadly, I don't watch films as often as I used to. I regret not writing lists when I was younger.
My father used to watch lots of film and I just tagged along. I probably watched 200-500 movies in my lifetime.

I began tracking the movies I watched last year.
A friend introduced me to letterboxd, and I love every feature of the site.
Sadly, I don't watch films as often as I used to.

when I download movies, I keep them on my hard drive, but when I stream them or watch in the cinema, I do not bother to keep records. I just make a mental note that I have watched the movie.

I used to a while back. I was one of the old school who would record the movies I really liked too, but nowadays I dont really care about what I watch these days. Something about the lenses irk me.

To be honest, I really don't keep track of the movies I've watched, I just watch movies as I go along.

Thank you for this comment, this is so me. I don't keep track but based on the title or description I can instantly tell if I've watched it already.

This is new to me, first I've heard of Criticker. Thanks for the enlightenment

No, but I do keep a book log
Imagine if we had no secrets, no respite from the truth. What if everything was laid bare the moment, we introduced ourselves?

Yes! I watch a lot of old movies from the 40s through 60s on Youtube. I keep a list of all the films I've seen, so I know which ones I liked and didn't.

Hi, since I am a film major and can barely keep track of my sleep schedule, I use the app Likewise. Its super handy. It helps keep track of all the books, movies and podcasts that you have experienced over the course of your life. Its super handy and I love using it so much! The app also has a rating system.

(BTW this is not an ad for this I just really like this app cause it is so helpful and keeps me organized)
