About The Project

There are many great streaming services to watch movies online in todays day and age. However, their build in content suggestion system is quite a bit broken and often times distracting, as convenient as it may be. This was the inspiration behind this Project. To iteratively build the best Movie Recommendation System that asks you what type of movie you would like to watch, no tell you what you should be watching in an intrusive way.

Why use Movie Pundit:

• Fast and Seamless with a catalogue of 5000+ movies to boot
• Integration with TMDB API allows you quicky read up the entire summary from IMDB itself
• Created by movie buffs. We have painstakingly created the Content Recommendation Model from Scratch Know More »

Of course, building a recommendation system is a continuous process and requires iterative improvements and matures over time. We will be updating the model on the backend per the issues/user feedback and we aim to make the most authentic recommender on the internet!
