However, if you require 4K Dolby Vision, perfect legal indemnity, and original prestige dramas, stick with HBO Max.
The "new site" iteration—launched just 60 days ago—represents a complete overhaul of an earlier beta version. The developers promised faster load times, a cleaner user interface, and most importantly, a library that moves at the speed of the internet.
For now, the "hot" label stands. It is hot because it is risky, it is hot because it is fast, and it is hot because it offers something the mainstream refuses to give us: everything, everywhere, all at once. Yes, but with eyes wide open. If you are a cinephile tired of the same Hollywood sequels, Banflix is a treasure trove. If you love social viewing and discovering weird films your friends have never heard of, the new site is a 10/10.
