Free-to-use tool for film and TV fans
Cetus is a free utility from the CetusDev team. This entertainment app lets you search for and download movie posters, whether it’s for a movie or a TV series. Small and straightforward, this is a nifty tool for cinephiles and artists looking to keep high-resolution posters on their devices.
In terms of interface, it looks a lot like any other streaming platform, think Netflix or Disney+ without the unofficial streaming content anywhere in the app. Overall, Cetus caters to a very small segment of the show-watching public, although the app itself is very fun and convenient for the right audience.
A very niched entertainment app
Cetus caters to a very specific audience. While most moviegoers and binge-watchers don’t pay much attention to posters. However, this is an art form in itself, following specific rules and leveraging certain nuances to achieve a particular effect. Whether it’s the persisting trend of orange and teal for action films or the use of the same elements for an entire movie franchise, this app can help you examine details.
As for the user interface, it’s intuitive and easy to use. Right when you open the app, you are treated to a massive gallery of posters in small rectangular tiles. The home page is a mix of movies and TV shows, and clicking on any one tile lets you view it full screen. You can also check out other promotional posters for the same film or show if available.
Still, it has no streaming capabilities, which is bad in terms of user-friendly features but a great move forward in protecting digital intellectual property. One restriction of this app is that it still has a limited selection. Its posters mostly focus on Hollywood films, with limited content from other film and show markets. Similarly, there’s limited content for old-school films, most of which are now regarded as classics.
For collecting modern posters
If you’re an artist or a collector of movie posters, having the Cetus app on your device is a fun experience. It lets you browse through modern posters, all in high resolution, and even view them in even closer detail. However, it mostly offers Western programs, with limited offerings from other film and TV markets around the world. Still, it’s a good app overall.
