27 May 2009Dr. Dolittle is probably not the first movie that comes to mind when you think of an action-packed movie. But to some people (i.e. our moms who once fed and may still feed us), Dr. Dolittle certainly could be considered an action-packed comedy.
Understanding how most people interpret films is one of the hardest challenges for us as we bang our heads repeatedly to refine the Movie Genome Project. By studying the movie reviews that people write across the Webisphere, we’ve learned what movies people think of when they hear the words Thriller, Provocative, or Jessica Alba. Was suffering some permanent brain damage worth it? Yes.
Our continued research has helped us launch a new set of Tastes and Genres this week including some categories of films that are hard to find elsewhere. If you’re looking for a Classic, a Sports movie, or something Uplifting for Kids, HelloMovies is the place to find it all. And although Dr. Dolittle may still creep his way into some Tastes and Genres that seem inappropriate, we’ve weeded out most of these movies or pushed them further back in search results for this latest revision.
Check it out and let us know what you think!
We are a movie startup, and this is our story.
