About

OMDb is a no-fuss database of movies, series, and episodes that answers plain questions like 'what's the rating of Dune?' Its superpower is bundling scores from IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, and Metacritic into a single response, plus posters, plot summaries, cast, and awards. It's much simpler than TMDB, which is why hobby projects love it.
