Related movies seem to be based on keyword search primarily, unconstrained by genre. But the keywords seem like sketchy content. Inception's keywords are "loss of lover dream sleep subconsciousness defense mechanism redemption," such that the top related movies are "The Science of Sleep" and "Sex and Lucia." Hmm... That doesn't seem quite right to me.

Looks good, but the one feature that I find lacking (in this and other similar apps, like http://omive.com) is the ability to "hide" movies I've already seen. Because otherwise I have to go through pages and pages to find a movie I haven't seen, let alone consider watching.

cool! Not really a criticism but more of a question as I'm not a designer by any means: Why do you only use a sliver of horizontal screen space in the middle? I only mention this because it looks slightly unusual on my 27" https://i.imgur.com/rVxPCQG.jpg

Pretty much this. I really like what you made, but it should be left-aligned.

This is pretty sweet, but wish there was a way to filter to show movies available on netflix.

+1. I can't believe that still doesn't exist on the web. I have Hulu Plus, Netflix, and Amazon Prime accounts, but nothing will answer for me "Can I watch this movie for free somewhere?".

Filtering by streaming service is a killer feature.
