How can we help?

FandangoNOW has more movies + TV shows than you can handle in one sitting. Browse and search over 40,000 new releases, classic favorites and TV shows - all subscription-free.

You don't need a FandangoNOW account to browse available content and watch trailers, but you will need an account to rent or purchase content – and to take advantage of all of FandangoNOW’s features. You can even link your UltraViolet™ account to access your UltraViolet™ titles anytime, anywhere.

Plus, earn some serious points with your free Fandango VIP Rewards account. The more points you earn, the more you save on FandangoNOW. For details, visit fandangonow.com/vip. Plus, FandangoNOW is available on wide variety of devices, including smartphones, tablets, computers and smart TVs.

The first mark is the Tomatometer™ rating, which represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show.

A good review is denoted by a fresh red tomato. In order for a movie or TV show to receive an overall rating of Fresh, the reading on the Tomatometer™ for that movie must be at least 60%. A bad review is denoted by a rotten green tomato splat (59% or less). To receive a Certified Fresh rating a movie must have a steady Tomatometer rating of 75% or better.

The second mark is the Audience Score, which represents the percentage of users who rate a movie or TV show positively. The full popcorn bucket means the movie received 3.5 stars or higher by Flixster and Rotten Tomatoes users. The tipped over popcorn bucket means the movie received less than 3.5 stars by Flixster and Rotten Tomatoes users.

Rental terms vary due to studio policies and in regard to certain titles. Specific terms and conditions are always available before you complete a transaction. In general:

• Once you rent a title, you typically have 30 days to start watching it.
• Once you select "Watch now", you can enjoy your title as many times as you like within 48 hours.

You can always see how long you have left to watch a title. Rental period information is displayed in each title's details screen.

UHD offers 4X higher resolution than HD due to a dramatic increase in the number of pixels. While standard HD has 1920 x 1080 pixels, 4K UHD has a minimum of 3840 x 2160 pixels - more than 8 million pixels total.

Here are a few reasons why buffering occurs:

• Low Bandwidth
• The Internet connection for your device might be a little low on bandwidth. We recommend at least 3 Mbps to enjoy streaming video in SD format. For HD movies and TV, you’ll want 5 Mbps or higher.
• Shared bandwidth

It's not uncommon to be sharing bandwidth with other people; in these cases, we recommend you ask them to stop what they're doing and watch a movie with you!
