Takilya.ph - Solving the issue of "Where should I watch this film?"
Hi everyone! I've been working on this project for a few months now and I'm happy to finally share it with you guys.
https://takilya.ph/ is a place to find showtimes and cinema reviews across the Philippines. For those unfamiliar, takilya is tagalog for box office.
I've been a longtime member of FilmClubPH, and some of the top posts we get are "where should I watch this film?", "what's the best theater to watch this in?", and so on. The answers are gold, but they get buried - a month later, someone asks the same thing because nobody digs through old threads.
So I built an all-in-one place for cinema reviews: every chain, branch, and theater, ranked on a 5-star system. You can review with your own account or anonymously!
To start it off, I collated posts and comments from this subreddit where people shared their cinema experiences and turned them into a review page - every entry links back to the exact original comment or post, so the credit stays with the author. If you've ever posted a cinema review here, you just might find your name! And if you'd rather not be included, message me, and I'll take it down right away.
I highly encourage everyone to review a cinema, good experience or bad. It will be really helpful so we can build on our community and help people who want to know which theaters are actually worth their money!
The other big feature: schedules and showtimes from the largest chains in the Philippines, all in one place. Save your preferred cinemas and theaters, find the closest ones, and get recommended cinemas for specific films. For some of the largest chains, you can even check seat occupancy, so you know if it's worth booking without opening their actual website! Booking links go straight to each chain's own page - I don't sell tickets or take a cut.
And the big one I'm working toward: box office tracking. Once the data gets stable enough, I want to publish a weekly or monthly write-up on how films are doing in Philippine cinemas. It has to live up to the name takilya after all! (example analytics I've posted in the past few weeks below)

The website is completely ad-free, no bloat, independently developed, and a passion project.
I'm actively maintaining and developing this! Some upcoming features: photo support per cinema and more UI improvements. Your feedback is appreciated - there's a feedback button right on the bottom right of the site.
If you find the site useful, the best way to support it is to leave a review after your next cinema trip and share it with your friends, family, and fellow redditors. The more of us reviewing, the better it gets for everyone!
Lastly, a big thank you to the fellow redditor and my friends who beta-tested the app and contributed to the review page! And to the many independent PH film projects that got made around the same time - each has its own feature set, so show some love to them as well: sinegang.com, cineph.com, fomo.ph
