What is IMDb

As its name suggests, IMDb is an internet cinema database. It was created in 1990 by a group of movie buffs, but took on greater proportions over the years as fans of series, films and documentaries joined the platform.

Receive the main news on WhatsApp Between no group

IMDb is not a specialized film review site, but rather a space for fans of the seventh art to give their opinions on the works they have watched. There, you can even find the release date of a production, who directed it, its cast and much more!

Users can also rate the series or feature films they watched.

They range from 1 to 10 stars, without the possibility of inserting a half point, such as 3.5, for example. Based on all the scores that a production receives, the site calculates its average and leaves it open for viewing by everyone who accesses it.

After decades on the air, IMDb today works as a good parameter for evaluating a production within the cinematographic world.

The platform has become so popular that it is already part of the daily lives of many users around the world. After all, there’s nothing more practical than, with just a few accesses, being able to find tips on what to see next or the complete filmography of an actor or actress, right?

How the best comedy films of all time are ranked on IMDb

IMDb has a list of the 250 highest rated films of all time on the platform. This list only includes feature films. Therefore, shorts, TV films (that is, productions made to premiere on television) and documentaries are not included.

The list has films of all genres. Using a tool available on the website itself, it is possible to filter which belongs to each genre. It is important to emphasize that a film can be classified within more than one genre at the same time.

A romantic comedy feature film, for example, would enter two different lists, if this selection were made: the best comedy and romance films. Now, to reach the main list, the film must have received ratings from at least 25 thousand users.

Once this happens, the site calculates, using a formula that includes the number of ratings each film received from users and the value of the ratings received from regular users, what is the final average rating of this film. Good enough, it makes the list.
