what’s my movie?
what’s my movie is a website that helps you find the name of the movie when all you know is as specific as the detail, the plot, the description, the actor or the director.
On a mission to make finding videos easy, this website is ready to take anything you give it and suggest movies in a way no other search engine can. you can even perform voice searches!

‘what’s my movie’ also shows the metacritic rating. maybe that movie you watched as a kid and felt nostalgic for was a horrible movie after all. I revisited Nutty Professor 2: The Klumps and I can tell you: Not all movies are as funny as they were when you were 8, I guess.

Thanks to years of databases, artificial intelligence, and movie buffs, you’re just a few clicks away from that name that’s had you thinking all this time!
imdb
imdb is a website with an endless movie database. every movie that ever existed is on this website! chances are you have already visited imdb at least once in your life. I, for one, visit imdb regularly for movie details and interesting tidbits.
how to search imdb:
- Use the imdb search to find what you remember of the plot, actors, directors, whatever.
- Keep your search simple. unlike “what’s my movie”, imdb doesn’t respond well to long sentences and guesswork, so you’re better off sticking to clarification keywords.
- follow our easy imdb search trick (explained below):
We are going to include this awesome shortcut https://www.imdb.com/search/title/ called “advanced title search” to make your movie search more specific.
advanced title search, as its name clearly suggests, allows you to “mark” all the things you remember about the movie to give you the correct answer. you can filter your search by all of the following:
- title type: is it a movie? documentary film? mark it!
- release date: you can even guess from what year to what year. This will narrow it down another step,
- genre: if you remember guns, fast cars, a fit cast, and the fbi being late to the party. spoiler alert: it’s an action movie, bookmark it!
- plot: do you remember anything about the plot? Write the story that made you remember this movie in the first place.
- Keywords: As we mentioned earlier, use defining keywords. ex: police, comedy, beauty pageant.
- group title: oscar winner? marking it you can also choose to win a razzie, but do you really want to see that?
- additional options: language, location, etc.
bonus tip: once you’ve found the name of the long-lost movie, add it to your wishlist by tapping (+wishlist). if you ever forget that name again, imdb will memorize it for you.
all you have to do is easily register with imdb to access this option.
