Jinni: Movie Search by Mood

Kinostartap now surprise no one.
It would seem that everything was invented: the tops of the best films , the search for films by genre, country and other parameters , user recommendations.

Recommendations sometimes help to choose something according to interests, but they do not solve a simple problem: today I want a film to just relax, tomorrow I’ll see something romantic with a girl, and the day after tomorrow I’ll be drawn to the arthouse.

Search by genre also does not help: comedies are romantic, stupid, and there are also sad ones. And what can be hidden behind the “drama” genre - you will get tired of listing.

But the guys from jinni managed to do something new in the search for movies.


Want to find a movie by mood? Please choose which one is needed: smart, funny, stylish, cruel, sentimental, creepy, inspiring, or all at once.

What are you talking about? About love, friendship, family, losers or superheroes? Something yes there.

Is there a desire to watch a film that was shot in Paris? You can too .

In addition, there is a search by type of humor (black, stupid, satire, etc.), the origin of the plot (based on real events / removed from the book) and key words. Freedom in choosing so much that the eyes run up, but at the same time finding something necessary now is not a problem.

Criteria can be interfered with as you please. Here, for example, stylish and funny movies with Jim Carrey .

Another feature of the site is “Story tuners”. By moving the slider, you can choose which movie is more suitable: realistic or fantastic, “light” or “heavy”.

So far it works quite badly, but I think it’s all about the number of evaluators.


From analogs I saw only rovi . Made a huge number of subgenres, the search for mood is made in the form of a square, where each point corresponds to a mood. There is no description, but for each film there is a trailer.

PS Relationship to the creators, I have no. The site is still quite buggy, but it seems to me that there is a future behind such a search. And in my opinion, this is a great site for those who like to borrow ideas for their projects from the west. Service is still young.
