Google Adds Movie Ratings, Times, Reviews

Mike Skweir writes " I was going to take my daughter to the movies this afternoon and I wanted to find out more about the movie 'Kicking & Screaming'... so I Googled it. To my surprise the following response occurred . When I followed the link, it actually gave me several reviews, movie ratings and the ability to search for a theatre in my area." Once you've entered your zip code, it will also tell you what movies are playing in your area.

  1. Nice to see BIAS for endless Google crap. by zymano · · Score: 0, Troll

    Before the censor police ban this post . Read this honest opinion instead of the sycophantic drivel of linux google users.

    Isn't it great of Slash to continously promote google with all their stupid and meaningless projects ! Why do we need this on technology website supporting one search engine. Don't you find it odd ? Sure their search is ok but it is based on other peoples links and searches from other search engines. Afterall , it is a ranked system . How do you rank if you had nothing to go on ; if there were no seed to copy . Google is a nice search engine but idiots that run this site would do us a service and quit 'hyping' trivial news storys from google every few days. When google offers affordable broadband or free long distance , then I will be fucking impressed. Hell, what google has done has been replicated everywhere. It doesn't take much computer savy to pull off what they did.

    I feel like someone is trying to fucking program people here .
