movie database

Cinematic information repository

A movie database is a structured collection of information about films—typically including titles, cast, crew, release dates, and plot summaries.

The term usually refers to online resources like IMDb where users can look up film details: I checked the movie database to see who directed it.

Such databases often include user ratings and reviews.
