Planning to watch a movie this weekend? As soon as one thinks of watching movies, the first thing that comes to one's mind is whether to go to the theatres or simply watch it online.

No doubt, watching movies online do have their charm. That big screen, enthusiastic people, great sound, and an overall immersive experience are what one pays for. But, there are some downsides, spending heavy bucks on tickets, spending a lot of money on snacks (after all, nobody likes to watch a movie without munching on snacks), traveling to the theatre, managing one's schedule, etc.

For those who are having second thoughts about going to theatres. Worry not. One can now easily watch movies online from various streaming sites, both paid and free. Let's see why staying home and watching online movies can be such a great idea.

But, some people like to watch movies every weekend. Some movie buffs like to catch a movie whenever they want to. Well, going to movies every weekend or multiple times a week is not pocket-friendly.

On the other hand, watching movies online from free sites is quite pocket-friendly. One can watch as many movies as they want without having to pay anything. All one needs to pay for is the internet. Simply have a digital device as per one's choice like laptops, PCs, smartphones, or tablets and watch movies without paying anything. One will also save transportation expenses and money spent on snacks at a theatre.

Manage Time
Movies run at theatres at a certain time. Means one will have to get a ticket to reach there in time and watch the entire movie in a single go. Well, unfortunately as the work-life balance of people is going for ruins. It has become difficult for movie watchers to find time for watching a movie. At times, it can quite difficult to watch a movie during the daytime. Also, going to the theatre and waiting for tax queues, and sitting at a place for 2 hours is not time effective for many busy bees.

Stop a movie in between, run some errands and restart from the same place. You can also feel comfortable watching from your living room plopped on the couch or lying on the bed. Also, one can watch movies while having any food they want from the kitchen without paying anything or having a restricted menu like theatres.
