Is there any android app or web app with movie ratings and reviews? Android app would be better. Alternative to imdb? I want to be able to fast check the rating of movie or list of actors. I know about wikipedia app but it's interface is not focused on movies. Thanks in advance!

Hey, these days I defer to TheMovieDB instead of IMDB. They don't develop their own app, however there are 3rd party apps using their API, a list of which can be found here.

Hope this helps and all the best!

Sounds like Showly, that aggregates track.tv and IMDB. https://github.com/1RandomDev/showly-oss

There is a fork on the Izzy repo which allegedly removes some tracking:

Not OP, but thank you! Showly seems great for tracking TV shows

Design, interaction and users are way superior to imdb.

No, it's just that @[email protected] didn't give the full link. It's happy and healthy at https://letterboxd.com
