Complaint
A 3 hour film "Dances with wolves" on 29th November from 4-40 till 9 clock that's 4 hours 20 minutes which implies there were an HOUR AND 20 MINUTES OF ADVERTS
Disgusting.
Preferred solution: Apology
User's recommendation: Have good movies on but unless you like overan hourof adverts give it a misd
Massive dissapointment
The fact no subtitles available this day and age is unforgivable. Disgusting channel.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
User's recommendation: Do not watch any of their channels
Disgusting content in adverts
- - Complains about a Plenty kitchen towel advert on TV.
- - The advert is disgusting and should not be aired.
- - Will not buy the product again.
I wish to complain about an advert on your channel Ive just seen for the kitchen towel Plenty.
Its absolutely disgusting and should not be aired. Anyone who thinks this appropriate need to think again.
I am actually never going to buy this product ever again so its counterproductive. It goes beyond suitable viewing and Im shocked as to the depths these advertisements will sink.
- Movies
- Disgusting adverts
Preferred solution: Remove disgusting content on adverts.
User's recommendation: If you don’t mind adverts then fine but there should be a warning given on some of the content.
Too many adverts
Im fine with averts before and after programmes but not during them. For this reason alone I stopped watching Sony channels and any other channels that do this
User's recommendation: Here is another advert. Don’t do it

Verified ReviewerAdverts adverts and more adverts
- - This channel shows great movies.
- - Adverts interrupt films very frequently; I record to skip them.
This channel shows great movies. Unfortunately the films are interrupted very frequently
with adverts. Certainly more often than any other movie channel I watch.
I now record the movies and fast forward at the adverts.
Much better than watching on TV.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
User's recommendation: Cut the ads down.
Frustrated viewer
This a channel for adverts with the occasional bit of movie in between!
Waste of time and tv resources.
Give the channel to a company who knows what they are doing.
Poor sound quality and lack of subtitles
- - The sound on Sony movie channels is too loud.
- - Subtitles on the news channel would help, and the movies are really good.
We are complaining about the sound on the Sony movie channels you have to have the sound up so loud to watch a film then when you change channels you have to turn it down as they are so much louder on other channels eg the news channel subtitles would be really helpful as such a shame as the movies are really good
User's recommendation: Would not recommend these channels
Put back subtitles to freeview and freesat
None of the channels have subtitles and I will have to stop watching.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
Resolved: Sony movie crap
- - Hype over three new channels led to rehashes of existing ones.
- - Two Christmas channels aired in September, which feels odd.
Has NOT been resolved
After loads of hype about 3 new channels,all we've got is a rehash of other channels crap and 2 chriztmas channels in SEPTEMBER.Absurd We've gone down the road of cheap crap American tv. Where not so long ago Britain was the toast of world Tele
- Nne
- Millions
Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered
Repeats
What's the point of all new movie channels when you're showing the Same crap you've been showing for years.REPEATS REPEATS and more REPEATS
This Channel is a joke
- - Fed up with advert breaks and long ads.
- - They switch to Sky Movies for no adverts and want this channel to cut ads.
Fed up with how many advert breaks and how long they are. So you get revenue from adverts but you will loose viewers.
Seriously Movies are meant to be watched in full no breaks, if you must have one then ONE ONLY. You say you love movies that's a joke, as far as i'm concerned you love adverts. Cut out the adverts and become a proper movie channel.
I never finish watching one of your movies as i get so fed up with all the repeated advert breaks i just turn over and watch Sky Movies, more up to date and no adverts. I hope you take this review on board.
Young Guns II
- - I looked forward to Billy the Kid, but the soundtrack was deleted.
- - The film feels worse without the soundtrack, and I will buy the DVD later.
I watched the advertising all week and looked forward to seeing what was the best version ever made of Billy the kid. Like all classic or cult movies they are only as good as the original version and to my horror the Bon Jovi soundtrack that was written specifically for the movie was deleted making the movie worse than just another western. Another dumped tv channel Sod so called movie channels in future I will get the dvd disgruntled and pissed off xxx xxx xxxx xxxx xxxx x x x xxxxx xxx xxx xxx xx xxxx xx xxxx xxxxx xxx x x xxx xx x xx xxx xxx xxxx x x xxxx
Tv Ads Review
10 minutes of movie 5 minutes repeated adverts! Definitely a pissed consumer
Repeats
- - Viewers are fed up with SET's repeated movies.
- - Schedules should limit repeats within a year.
- - Reality shows are appreciated; viewers subscribe.
We as viewers are fed up with S E T's repeated movies over and over. who ever is in charge of movie schedule at least take a look at it, to verify how often its been played within a month.
I mean if we talk about bollywood movies, theres about five same movie title in five decades. My point is there are so many movies to choose from.
My complaint is that same movies shouldn't be repeated even once in an year. There are some realty T.V shows that sony entertainment supports, and we as viewers appreciate and that is why we subscribe to SET.
Why doesnt sony movie channel have closed captioning?
- - A deaf customer says the new Sony movie channel has no CC.
- - They want CC to watch today's movies on TV and on PCs.
As a legally deaf customer & recently receiving a new channel, Sony movie channel, I need closed captioning to understand what's going on. This new station has no cc & my husband who knows I cannot watch Tv without cc, gets upset & we don't get to watch whatever good movie is on.
What gives????
I realize a lot of people don't like or need cc-ok so push the off button & you wont see it..its not fair to us non-hearing people to have to miss out on today's movies, let alone on our pc's!!!! Help!

Will never watch this channel while there's no subtitles. Freeview - why is it not a condition of carrying the Sony channels that they stop discriminating against the disabled ?
