    If you don't know what to watch in the coming holiday, here are the top movie search engines on the web. Some require little or no input before they give you titles, while others want to find out exactly what your interests are.

    Rotten Tomatoes

    Instead of telling Rotten Tomatoes which films you like, you can tell it what kind of films you enjoy, which actors you want to see, and other aspects to help it find the best movie for you. The quality of Rotten Tomatoes recommendations is changeable but it's also a nice way to find the right film for any mood.

    IMDb

    IMDb automatically recommends similar films to the movie you search for instead of asking you to input ratings (评分) or to tell it what movies you like. At the bottom of the page, a "Recommendations" section will show you a variety of other films being displayed, based on information gathered from its database, which examines films to find similarities and differences.

    Jinni

    Whether you want to search for films based on your mood, time available, or reviews, the site has it all. But Jinni's most amazing feature is its semantic search. You can enter words like "films that show Chris Farley yelling" and the site will return films that match your question. Go to use Jinni. You won't regret it!

    Criticker

    Instead of just allowing you to rate films, Criticker compares your ratings to those of other users and see how closely your tastes match those of other users. Once the service finds matches, you can view these users' lists and see which movies they like. Combining community and functionality, Criticker is a unique, yet worthwhile service to check out.
