How to Movie

New: a personal Taste Profile, an expanded Year in Review, and AI Discovery out of beta. Know how you'll feel about a film before you press play.

How To Movie predicts how YOU'll rate a film before you press play, using a personal model trained only on your own ratings, never the crowd's average.

Rate the films you've seen, and How To Movie builds a model of your taste, then scores everything on your watchlist as Ugh, Good, or Great, calibrated to how you actually rate, not a generic 7.5.

WHAT IT DOES • Predicts your rating. A personal model, trained on the films you've rated, estimates how you'll score a film before you watch it. • Modern and classic brains. Separate models for recent films and 15+ year-old classics, so older movies are judged on their own terms. • How you'll feel. Every film gets a clear Ugh, Good, or Great verdict, with a confidence level. • Your Taste Profile. See who you are as a viewer: your signature genre combos, the people driving your recent taste, where your taste is heading lately, and how you stack up against the crowd. • Year in Review. A shareable, image-rich recap of your movie year, plus a 7-year "Your Era" retrospective. • AI Discovery. Optional AI recommendations read your taste profile and surface films worth your night, only when you turn it on. • A watchlist that works. Track what you want to watch, filter by decade or release year, and see what's out now. • Rankings and Stats. Your favorite actors, directors, studios, genres, and eras, ranked by your own ratings.

WHY IT'S DIFFERENT It doesn't tell you what critics thought. It tells you what you'll think. Recent favorites count for more, so predictions keep pace with how your taste actually shifts over time.
