Movie Master is an OVOS skill that finds information about movies, actors, and production details using The Movie Database (TMDb).

Examples

  • "What is the movie _______ about?"
  • "Tell me about the movie _______"
  • "Who plays in the movie _______?"
  • "What genres does the flick _______ belong to?"
  • "Look for information on the movie _______."
  • "When was the movie _______ made?"
  • "Do you have info on the film _______?"
  • "What are popular movies playing now?"
  • "What films do you recommend like _______?"
  • "How long is the movie _______?"
  • "What are the highest rated movies out?"

Installation

Install the skill with pip:

pip install git+https://github.com/OpenVoiceOS/ovos-skill-moviemaster

After installation

Ask a question about a movie, for example "Tell me about the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail".

This skill requires your own free TMDb API key — it does not ship with one:

  1. Sign up for a free account at TMDb.
  2. Get an API key from your TMDb account settings. TMDb issues a v3 key and a v4 key. This skill uses the v3 key.
  3. Enter the v3 key in your skill settings file under apiv3.

Without a configured key, the skill will speak an error instead of answering movie questions.
