Movie Finder: A Python-based Project to Help You Discover Movies Based on Genres and Ratings!

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m excited to share a project I’ve been working on: Movie Finder, a Python-based command-line application that helps users discover movies based on different genres and ratings.

---

About the Project

The Movie Finder allows users to:

• Search for movies based on different genres like Action, Drama, Comedy, etc.
• Filter movies by age rating and movie rating.
• Get recommendations for movies based on their preferences.

This is a simple yet effective project built using Python, and it's a fun way to explore working with lists, dictionaries, and handling user input.

⚙️ Features

• Genre-based Search: Users can select a genre and get a list of movies related to it.
• Rating Filters: Users can filter movies based on their minimum preferred rating (1-5).
• Age Rating Filters: Users can specify the maximum age rating for the movies.
• Customizable Filters: A flexible filtering system that lets users apply multiple filters at once, like age and rating.

Here are a few screenshots of how the app looks in action:

🤔 Challenges Faced

While building this project, I faced a few challenges:

• Handling user input and making sure the filters worked properly.
• Making sure the movies were displayed clearly, especially when applying multiple filters.
• Ensuring the logic was flexible and could handle different use cases (age ratings, movie ratings, etc.).

🚧 Future Improvements

I plan to add the following features in the future:

• Potentially improve the movie search by ordering the results based on how similar they are to the user's search (e.g., using some form of text similarity algorithm).
• Add more advanced filtering options, like sorting by year or popularity.

Great thank you :-)
If you need a UI look at : FastHTML and deploy it on Vercel
Here is a simple HelloWorld in FastHTML :

from fasthtml.common import *

app,rt = fast_app()

@rt('/')
def get(): 
    return Div(P('Hello World!'))

serve()
