“IMDb - The Ultimate Movie Buff's Companion”

One-stop shop for all things movies and TV shows? Look no further than IMDb! This platform has it all, from ratings and reviews to cast and crew information, trailers, and more. Whether you're a casual viewer or a die-hard fan, IMDb has something for everyone. IMDb solves the problem of having to scour the internet for information about movies and TV shows. With everything in one place, it's easy to find what you're looking for quickly and efficiently. Plus, the user reviews and ratings help you make informed decisions about what to watch next. Great free resource to use when you need details on a movie or TV show quickly. While IMDb is a great resource, it's not without its flaws. The search function can be a bit finicky at times, and some of the user reviews can be unreliable. However, these are minor issues that don't detract from the overall usefulness of the platform. Overall, IMDb is a must-have tool for any movie or TV show lover. Its vast library of information and user-friendly interface makes it a breeze to use

“I don't understand!”

I wrote a fun review for an episode of "Law & Order: SVU", and I gave it ten stars. My review was rejected. I have no clue why, and they wouldn't tell me. The review had no offensive language or anything questionable. The rejection of my review made me feel bad about myself, as if I'd been reprimanded for misbehaving; and it made me feel as if I was doing something wrong by trying to share my unique, quirky opinion with the world. I got upset and deleted my account with them. If they don't want me around, that's fine. But it's probably not good for business.

I think IMDb is a great site for all movie's info, and not just for movies, for Tv shows as well. You can find everything that you need about some actor in matter of seconds, which really helped me to choose what to watch next. One more thing that I really like is that they provide you with trailer's as well, so that make my life much easier!

With the streaming service recommendations, nice to go here and see if the suggestion is a junk garbage movie or tv show or not. On movies I've watched, I decide on a score before going to the site and have found my opinion matches the average on most. Great tool. Now they have a streaming tv/movie channel. Watching Dead Like Me on it.

Tip for consumers:
Once you sign up, rate as many of your favorite movies as you can (no word reviews necessary, just stars) and it will start to suggest "if you liked this, you'll like that..."

Products used:
The movie rating and suggestions as well as when I found an actor I liked, finding their other shows. Ricky Garvis from "after Life" is a perfect example.

There has not been a better site than IMDb for movie and series listing. No, don't mention Rotten Tomato, cause the ratings of that site are $#*!, 'Black Panther is the top movie of all time? Like get lost.
I also like how IMDb moderates every information submission, review, and such. It protects the site from false data entry.
But the user profile feature definitely needs some upgrades. There should be a separate bar for just the profile of the user.
By the way, I love the top 250 lists.

PS: The new update of the IMDb page is $#*!.

Awesome. For those who know the facts true life is better than fiction, RBG and her husband were a formidable team and their family and professional life and frustrations was realistically portrayed. Bravo to the acting cast and the producers. Need to produce more true stories of this caliberintelligent, humanistic, honest portrayal. I'm now an RBG fan!

IMDB is where you rate and review movies and TV shows and make lists and polls about movies and TV shows. I think it's fun for people who are fans of reviewing TV shows and movies.

You can never always rely on the word of a friend when it comes to recommending movies to watch. Plus, I don't like trailers because they kind of spoil some parts of the movie. IMDb allows users to identify latest and upcoming movies. The viewer ratings are quite accurate as i have never been disappointed. I highly recommend IMDb.

I use this one often to decide whether I want to watch a particular movie or not. The only problem for me is that some movies have ratings much bigger than they got in fact.

IMDB is a great site with lots of info and it's connected to Amazon and they rock too. It's been around forever and I've been a member for almost 14 years. Someday I'll have an IMDB page when I finally get all the fame I deserve.

Def the best site for getting all kinds of really good info about movies and actors. I also really like how you can just like look up an actor or actress, see EVERYTHING that they have starred in, and really get a good idea of their history and roles and stuff. It's just a lot of information available, plus good recommendations and ratings. Working my thru the top 100 too!

Here I usually look up information on actors and characters about movies and TV shows. It list almost all the actors that played as the characters, plus descriptions about a movie or show. Also, they have actor pages a well. That's about it.

Tip for consumers:
I find everything movies here. Use anytime you'd like.
