imdb.comAre you a cinephile? I hope so!

And if it so, then IMDb.com (the largest Internet movie database) could be rather interesting for you.

IMDb is a really great project. As a movie fan, I'm loving it very much. I'm not fond of a kind of bestsellers movies, and in this case IMDb helps me a lot by providing an ability to find not so well-known movies but truly more interesting and qualitative ones (as for me, of course).

But wait a minute, how can it help us with learning English?

The answer is pretty obvious. Each movie on IMDb have list of the most memorable quotes and dozens of users' reviews. And I should admit - most of the top reviews (if you filtered them by rating, anyway it's a default filter) is a really great reviews. It's just interesting to read them. And it's, of course, more interesting to read them right after you watched the movie.

So what's the advice? Well, you should watch more movies (in English, of course). And right after you've watched some movie, you should read at least top 10 reviews and some of the memorable quotes. It should become just a good habit to you.
