イヴ (ID: 00000044bc1e2684) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 12/16/2021 Great ext, but it lacks a critical feature (found in most other netflix exts) ==> A click on the rating should open the IMDb page automatically (in another tab). Another winning option is to have one's own IMDb rating (in blue) next to the general one (that's a way to ensure the show has already been watched in the past). Besides that, it does the job (but - an option to hide items < 7.5 (movies) and < 8 (series) - a way to change ratings colors (the lower it is, the lighter it becomes!?) would be wonderful)

Jerry Winkler (ID: 00000002a7881f35) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 05/09/2021 I like the info the extension can show. But as others have mentioned, it unfortunately sometimes gets the wrong movie/show.

hardik bhatt (ID: 000000f587c9b537) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/06/2020 The ratings are way far off. I end up making misinformed decisions instead of more effort in making informed decisions. And it also ends up taking too much real estate on the UI which is quite annoying.
