Work with Arwin

A film critic that finishes the words, and an audience that reads them.

One thousand four hundred thirty-eight films logged. Five hundred twelve full reviews. One hundred thirty-eight thousand, two hundred seventy-four words. ARWIN REVIEWS is a Philippine film archive on global cinema, curated by Arwin, opening week to festival, written by a CFO who pays attention. Four sponsorship lanes are open below.

Who reads it

People who plan their week around what to watch. CFOs by day, cinephiles by night. Educated PH audience, plus a growing global diaspora that finds ARWIN REVIEWS through search and social. A reader who has stayed for 138,274 words of prose is not casual, and not noisy.

If your brand sells films, gear, cinema seats, premium snacks, or anything else worth a second screen, this is where you reach the buyer who decided what to watch on Friday night before Friday started.

The three lanes

Each lane is a real partnership, not a banner ad. Every paid placement is labelled, on brand, and reviewed honestly. The verdict is not negotiable.

For studios and streamers

Gear testing program

Send the projector, the soundbar, the 4K player, the noise-cancelling cans. Arwin uses them across real films, writes the review, and publishes the verdict next to the films you tested with. Comes with social posts and a kit return.

Homepage hero slot

The honesty rule

Every paid placement is labelled at the top of the post. Arwin writes what Arwin writes. If the film does not work, the verdict says so. Disclosure protects both sides, sponsors keep the slot regardless of the star count.

This is the only rule that lets sponsorship work for a critic worth reading. Sponsors who want a five-star promise should buy a banner ad. Sponsors who want a real audience should pitch here.

"The verdict is not negotiable. That is the entire point of the slot."

Quick answers

Can you guarantee a positive review?

No. The verdict reflects the film. Sponsorship buys the slot, the disclosure, the audience, and the production care, not the star count.

How is sponsored content disclosed?

A clearly labelled "Sponsored" or "Promoted" banner at the top of the post, an "in partnership with" line at the foot, and the brand tag in the URL slug. Same disclosure shows on social shares.

Do you do banner ads or pop-ups?

No banner ads, no pop-ups, no autoplay video. One promoted slot at the top of the home page when one is sold. Everything else is editorial.

What is the turnaround?

A sponsored opening-week review publishes within 72 hours of the screening, the week the film opens. Gear testing is a 14-day cycle. Brand partnerships are monthly.

Do you do bundles or annual deals?

Yes, ask. Bundles across the three lanes get a 15 percent line-item discount, annual deals 20 percent.

Do you publish performance data?

Yes, every paid placement comes with a one-page recap: views, scroll depth, social reach, follow-on referrals. Sent within seven days of publish.
