after clicking on a movie allow for easy closing of movie and back to list
I click on a movie from my recommended list and it seems like the only way to get back to my list is to hit my browsers back button. Could you make something that would just close the movie (a pop-out like this?) and then you are back to the list?

Additional genre: Surrealism
There's some films on here where the best way to describe them would be "Surrealism". However, movies like Eraserhead are getting called "Fantasy" instead. Fantasy is typically meant for films that take the world and fantasize it in some semi-realistic way, or even create a completely different world that isn't too unlike our own; surrealist films completely break down the world and have far less sense and order to them. I don't feel fantasy is an adequate description of some of the more surreal films, and I think it would be best if they were labeled "surrealism" instead.

content warning/ability to have questions answered about movie
I have PTSD and would like to be able to ask general questions about certain content. I realize that there is a lot of animosity towards "trigger warnings" and feelings that it's often misused, but there are times I genuinely really want to see a movie, but can't find any information about whether it contains certain content. Basically, I'm often forced to limit myself to light comedies which are great, but I like to branch out. If there's any way this issue could be addressed even if not through being able to have questions answered, I'd really love that, but…

Explain Zero Rating Predictions
Hi, I’ve been here since the very beginning.
I think you ought to explain to users how you can make a prediction with zero ratings. It would seem to break the model of how this works.

Be cool to see which actors or directors have the highest avg. star rating from own ratings
Have an avg score beside highest 10 actors from movies rated.
Same for directors.
Having stats for how many movies viewed with certain stars or directors in would be interesting to see!
Thanks for this site, The recommendations have been more hit than miss!1 vote -
Statistics
It would be really interesting to make deeper the stats part of the website, and especially i would like to see the number of movies rated sorted by country of production.

Interface needs work
Maybe it's because I'm using a phone, but it's almost impossible to rate movies. Clicking on the star to bring up the ratings almost always ends up instantly going to one of the tags for the movie instead. Very frustrating.

Tell what’s free/available
In the description of each movie, you can have a section where it says if can be streamed on Netflix, Stars, Prime video, etc. so we can know if we can watch the movie or not

Make the homepage load faster
The homepage is the most important page, and it seems to load quite slowly (at least for me, it takes more than 3 seconds). I wonder if recommendations could be pre-computed for each user to make the page load faster.
Or a quick fix could be at least showing gif with some fun animation to make the time pass faster :)

Using matching / and add favorites directors/writers
I’m not sure how the algorithm works, but I think if you implemented a matching system with other people based on their likes/dislikes that would take MovieLens to the next level.
For example, if Joe gave movies A, B, and C a 5 star rating and Karen, Tim, and Sandy also gave movie A, B, and C a 5 star rating, MovieLens should be able to identify other similarities between Karen, Tim and Sandy to give Joe a recommendation and make a list for them saying something like, “Movies people love based on your love of Movies A & B.

Optional Warrior+Wizard Recommendations Average
Of course, this could be done manually, but it would be interesting to have a way to average both The Warrior and The Wizard recommendation scores, or have a way to display both on a movie's page.
