Quick Look: The Five Minutes of Fame Roku channel comes from the Five Minutes of Fame International Film Festival, which is a website that solicits entries in 15 categories, including Podcast, Infomercial, Public Service Announcement, Feature Documentary, Feature Drama, and Short Webisode. The Channel Store description of this subscription-based Roku channel says that it contains the films that were shown during a theater screening of the 2016 festival entries. We usually purchase or subscribe to fee-based Roku channels in order to provide a complete review, but in this case $10 was too steep a price to pay for less than three dozen short videos from a film festival with an "about us" page that is an advertisement for a Forex investing app. View the videos for free on the website and decide for yourself whether it's worth the price to watch them on your TV screen.
