Search IMDb in Alfred with movie and TV show ratings shown as results' icons.

Features:

  • See movie and TV show ratings right in search results
  • When viewing indivial persons or titles, pressing Enter while the second result is selected (the one with a title's or person's name) will open a corresponding IMDb page in your default browser
  • Items with an ellipsis in their title (e.g. “Director...”) are active: Pressing Enter when they are selected will perform corresponding actions (like showing the information about a movie's director or the list of actors starring in that movie)
