*Disclaimer: This box was sent to See, Shop, Love! in exchange for an honest review.
MovieBlox costs $20 per month for a DVD subscription or $23 for Blu-Ray. Each box will contain one new movie, popcorn, and candy, as well as a surprise extra! They also include a little trivia card with information about the movie you've been sent. There are two box options:
- MovieBlox Classicz - Includes anything from Ghostbusters to Old School
- MovieBlox Kidz - Includes anything from The Goonies to Finding Nemo
I chose the DVD version of the Classicz box. When you subscribe you also fill out a survey where you can tell MovieBlox your favorite genres and genres you don't want to receive. I think this is great because then you'll never have to worry about getting something you definitely won't like. I asked for Thrillers, and I also would have requested to not receive romantic comedies.
Here's everything that was in my box! I got another movie as my extra item so that's a pretty great surprise extra, I'd say. My main movie is Arlington Road. It's one I've never seen before so I'm excited to watch it. Here's a quick synopsis from Wikipedia:
Arlington Road is a 1999 American mystery thriller film, which tells the story of a widowed George Washington University professor who suspects his new neighbors are involved in terrorism and becomes obsessed with foiling their terrorist plot.I'm moving into a new apartment on Saturday, August 1st and I'm sure I'm just going to want to sit and do nothing after moving everything in, so I'm going to watch this that night. I think it sounds really good!
I also received Notes on a Scandal starring Dame Judy Dench and Cate Blanchett. I love both actresses and I think the plot of this sounds great, too. My popcorn is an Orville Redenbacher's pop up box (perfect for eating straight out of the bag) and my candy is Raisinets. I don't love Raisinets, but I know my dad would like these so I'm going to pass them off to him. The box also had a trivia card for Arlington Road and a smaller business card for MovieBlox with their social media accounts on it.
Bottom Line: I think that MovieBlox is an excellent deal and a great box for a girl's night in, date night, or just a night by yourself! I love snuggling up at night and watching a good movie and MovieBlox takes the hassle out of trying to decide what to watch by sending movies from my preferred genre right to my door.
Thanks for sharing! This sounds like a great subscription for me, as I do love watching movies. It's fun to get a surprise and I like that you can help "personalize" the box by posting what genres you do and do not like.

Hi Lauren, so sorry for the late reply! I think you'd like this box a lot!
DeleteOh man, I love this idea! I bet my mom would love getting a box like this... she knows how to use a DVD player but still seems to be confused by the whole Netflix streaming thing, haha. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha it was a struggle teaching my parents how to use Netflix too!
