Google Movies - 2/24/2005 - 9:53 AM

Google introduces its latest operator "movie", this operator tag enables you to search movies (old & new).

 

If you ever had trouble remembering the title of a movie but know key bits & pieces of the movie then you shouldn't have any problem finding the movie title.

 

Here are some examples I've tried myself:

 

movie:  4 girls in a bar

 

movie:  scary pickup truck

 

movie:  christmas whitney houston

 

movie:  illegal stock brokers

 

movie:  gambler bank

 

movie:  comedy wayans in the hood

 

movie:  small town girl has cancer

 

It was surprising to see each one was precisely targeted, but I guess I expect that from Google.  You can even search for movies currently playing and get the showtimes from theaters in your area.  Beyond that you can search for all movies playing in your area, by using the movie operator with your zip or location.  Example:  movie:  27514 or movie:  Chapel Hill, NC.  This will give you a list of the theaters in your area, with the movie listings and showtimes.  This is a great addition to there current operators.  They already had a operator tag for movie reviews (critic | review | commentary), but you had to know the exact name of the movie.  The "movie" operator strecthes beyond this and allows you to search by keywords, without ever knowing the title of the movie.  Great Feature...I give it a Thumbs Up.  What about you Ebert?
