Your audiovisual diary & recommender.Films, series, documentaries, anime, stand-up. Log what you watched. Rate it. Build lists. Get recommendations that understand what you mean by similar — not just what's popular this week.
Every feature is opinionated about how cinéfilos use a movie app. We don't average sources into a number; we don't pretend a 5-star scale works for everyone; we don't hide what's similar behind a black box.
Thumb up or down at the end of any video. Refine to half-stars later if you want. Thumb-down asks one chip — "didn't finish", "too heavy", "not what I expected" — so the signal is real.
Date, venue, who you were with, what you thought. Auto-filled when you finish a film on Koder Play, Tune, or check in via Koder Cine. Edit later — memory is fuzzy and that's fine.
Rotten Tomatoes, IMDb, Letterboxd, Take — shown side by side, always. The divergence is the point. Hidden averages lie.
Pick anchor titles, then say what kind: action, tone, pacing, theme, archetype. Add a negative anchor — "like Bourne but no torture" — and watch the recommender adjust.
Every recommended title surfaces its official trailer in both audio tracks side by side. No more hunting YouTube before you decide.
Year intervals, multiple countries, hand-curated genre taxonomy, director and cast autocomplete, ratings qualified by source. Or one-tap presets — "Anos 80", "Brazilian cinema", "Critically acclaimed".
Take knows what you saw on Play, Tune, in cinemas via Cine, and what you imported from Letterboxd. Recommendations stop showing it. Diary still has it.
Private notes, public reviews, collaborative lists with friends. Follow critics whose taste you trust and see their lists in your feed.
Ratings public by default, private per-title with a tap. The diary is followers-only. "Watched" status is never public — your taste is yours.
Three loops that compound: capture, discover, share.
Watch a film on Koder Play or Tune, or scan your ticket via Koder Cine. The end-of-video prompt is one tap. The diary entry writes itself.
// Your evening, automated when videoEnded(runtime: 98%) { watchStatus.mark('watched') diary.draft({ title: 'Oppenheimer', source: 'play', watched_at: now(), }) prompt.queue('How was it?') }
The Discover tab blends recommendations from your ratings, what your followed accounts loved, and curated lists. Every card carries the score breakdown and trailer links — decide before you open the player.
// Find something genuinely close discover.similar({ anchors: ['Bourne Identity', 'Sicario'], aspects: { tone: 0.8, pacing: 0.6 }, negative: ['Hostel'], filters: { year_min: 2010 }, })
Follow the critics whose taste you trust. Build collaborative lists. Write reviews that hide spoilers behind a tap. Or keep everything private — Take works just as well as a personal log.
// You control what's visible review.create({ title: 'Anatomy of a Fall', rating: 4.5, visibility: 'followers', spoiler: true, body: 'The kitchen scene...', })
