Cons
Con Recommendation engine is not great
It rarely hits that feeling of "YES! So glad it recommended me that movie for how I'm feeling now."
Con Takes a lot of time to build your profile/taste.
I you were to start building your taste on the website, expect 1 to 2 hours of manually entering your ratings for movies you have seen. After that the recommendation is really good.
