Movienizer is an intuitive database that allows users to keep track of their movie collections. Although it's similar to other programs we've seen, the fact that it's free sets it apart.
Movienizer's interface is simple and attractive, with its major functions organized in buttons and menus across the top. Like many similar programs, Movienizer can download movie information from 24 online resources in nine languages, or gather information from a DVD or text file. The program also has a loan-tracking feature, allowing users to keep track of who they lend their DVDs to, although it's lacking the separate database for borrowers that many other programs have. The program does allow users to create collections of people, such as actors or directors, as well as sort movies by actors, genres, and other categories. The program also has a built-in movie player, allowing users to view movies that are stored on their computers without opening a separate application. Most of the program's features were easy to use, although we found it difficult to switch between databases at first; this function is not completely intuitive. The program's built-in Help file is well written and did a good job of answering our questions. Overall, while there was nothing really exceptional about the program, we found it to be a perfectly adequate movie organizer, competitive with other programs that must be paid for.
Movienizer is free. It installs and uninstalls without issues. We recommend this program to all users.
Publisher's Description
From ManiacTools:
Movienizer organizes tracks and researches your movie collection easily with the powerful movie catalog tool. Catalog all your movies, track loaners and get recommendations with your personal movie organizer. Movienizer helps you account for all movies that you already have as well as those you wish you had.
No more boring text-only presentation. Download posters and pictures or make your own disc shots and frame snaps with the built-in DVD player. Rate your movies or download IMDB ratings, and get recommendations according to your taste and preferences. So why Movienizer is better than movie Web sites? Because it's your collection and your movies we're talking about. No Web site shows your movies, and your movies only, sorted or grouped by any attribute. Group your movies by director or by actor, sort by title or by genre, or create your own custom criteria to navigate through your collection as an ace. They're your movies from your collection, so why lose them if you loan a disc but forget who took it? Let Movienizer refresh your memory by allowing you to record who and when borrowed a movie whenever you decide to part with one temporarily.

"My favorite)"
Version: Movienizer 6.0 build 345
Pros
Using Movienizer for years, very nice app! Looks very simple at first glance, but then you discover depth. Here one can do things impossible in other movie catalog programs! Very nice and prompt support, too. Worth every penny.
Cons
A friend of mine can't stop raving about the program after I showed it him a few weeks ago)

"Movienizer defrauds buyers"
Version: Movienizer 6.0 build 345
Pros
Features from any movie catalogue software
Cons
Movienizer licensing is very weird. You buy today and you not get major upgrades released tomorrow. You only get minor updates which have bug fixes (Hellow, I have the right to use a bug free software which I paid for unlike downloading a cracked copy).
I bought 4.0 in October 2011. They released 5.0 in November 2011 and denied me an upgrade. Most publishers provide 1 year free upgrade.
