Film has a noticeably lower share of channels that actually play than the site as a whole, and the explanation is the single most important thing to understand about this category. Films are licensed territory by territory. Territorial licensing is enforced technically, which means a channel can be listed, resolve correctly and still refuse to play from an arbitrary location. A stream failing here is far more often a rights boundary than a dead server.

The country mix is unusual and tells you something real. Germany and Russia are both represented well beyond their weight in most other categories, reflecting large domestic film libraries with long-amortised rights that can be run cheaply on a free channel. The United States leads on volume, but a substantial part of that is streaming-native genre channels rather than anything resembling a broadcast film service.

Genre channels are the dominant form throughout. Rather than a general film channel with a mixed schedule, the pattern is a channel that runs one thing continuously: westerns, action, horror, martial arts, classic Hollywood, or a national cinema. This is a direct consequence of how the catalogue is assembled. A rights holder with a deep library in one genre can fill a channel from it indefinitely at almost no marginal cost, and that is a far easier business than curating across genres.

First-run material is essentially absent, which follows from the same economics. Anything with current commercial value is sold into windows that free ad-supported channels sit at the very end of, if they are in the chain at all.
