User reviews

RateFlix is praised for enhancing Netflix by adding IMDb and other ratings, improving user experience. However, many users report that the extension no longer works after Netflix updates, often fails to show ratings automatically, and sometimes presents incorrect data. Additional complaints include intrusive donation pop-ups and limited functionality in displaying all rating sources comprehensively. While once effective and simple, the extension currently suffers from broken features and reliability issues, prompting many to uninstall or look for alternatives.
Pros
  • Provides IMDb ratings and links directly within Netflix, enhancing the viewing experience.
  • Simple and effective when working, showing ratings while watching movies.
  • Adds useful rating information to Netflix, compensating for Netflix's removal of user ratings.
  • When functional, supports multiple rating sources like IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, and Metacritic.
Cons
  • Currently does not work properly or at all due to Netflix site updates.
  • Requires opening and closing windows to get IMDb data instead of automatic updates on hover.
  • Displays inaccurate or wrong ratings frequently, reducing trustworthiness.
  • Displays intrusive pop-ups requesting donations, which annoys users.
  • Limited functionality with some rating sources like Rotten Tomatoes showing only partial data or incorrect icons.

Keep getting popups asking to donate, extension is now more annoying than it's worth.

Didn't work for a long time and then suddenly I got a pop-up, or rather an intruding tab to the creators Patreon page. Instant uninstall. It was decently good when it worked but I'd rather look for an alternative.
