How do I find out which movie I have rated but not reviewed (or review has not been approved)?

Hi,

 

the question may sound too mundane or simple. Especially if one only has a few reviews, but mine are in the thousands now and there seems to be a discrepancy between what I've rated and what reviews are on. Going through my list manually would take me quite a long time. So if there was a possibility to get information on what titles are rated and not reviewed or the other way around, that would be really awesome.

 

Some may find this "problem" ridiculous (I have joked about similar things as first world problems), I'd still very much appreciate if I get some help in that matter, without too much other noise.

 

Thank you so much

Hi, Kospac. Looks as though you did rate Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell (five on a scale of one to ten) and Spenser Confidential (seven on a scale of one to ten) but either did not submit reviews for them or those reviews were deleted. Can you confirm this? Your feedback shall be most appreciated.

I don't think there's a way to query that. Unless you're willing to do some work.

Here's what I suggest (this is on the desktop version of IMDb):

  1. Create a custom list where you're going to record each title that you've reviewed.
  2. Go through your list of reviews (Activity Page > Quick Links: Reviews), and add each title to the list
  3. I'd even go so far as to record the permalink of the review in the comment field of the title.

BTW, if you're not using the pre-assigned Checkins list for anything, that would make a great place to store these, or even if you are, it would be a great way to build the list if you're going to add the permalink for each title. I say that because on a title page, you can click the Share link, and one of the options is Checkins, and you can enter the comment directly on that screen. So you'd only need 2 tabs open (the list of Reviews, and each title). If you don't want Checkins as the final location, you can move them to a custom list when you're done.

 

Once you've built this custom list, you can use Advanced Title Search to find the titles you've Rated, but that are not on your custom list of reviews.

Hi,

 

thanks for your reply.

I got lucky and someone found the missing reviews. I will try to come back to the method you suggested when I have time to do so

 

Cheers

Note: in addition to storing the permalink in the list comments, you could actually paste a copy of the review itself there too.

@jeorj_euler hi once again, you think you could do another check for me? Either they deleted some double reviews (which I would be fine with) or they deleted a few of my other reviews for whatever reasons (I guess if someone hates you they just have to tag or report a review, which I find very disturbing)

Anyway, thanks a bunch again

@jeorj_euler Hey my friend, wishing you happy holidays/merry christmas and a great 2022

maybe sometime next year you can do another run at some missing reviews or what not. Right now I know of two that were accepted and have not popped up in the review section ;)

Alright cheers and see ya

@jeorj_euler hey my friend, hope you are good. I think another review has been deleted and it's probably 3 that are missing ... not sure to be honest. If you could work your magic again, that would be much appreciated :)

Take care and stay safe

I will let you know when I have something. Unfortunately, this hasn't been the case for a long time.

@jeorj_euler​ good to hear from you :)

Someone who works for imdb gave me a list of all reviews that had been removed (25 at the time she wrote it) ... so I got them all. But two weeks ago another review went AWOL ... and yesterday one more. I did find those by checking my rating total - comparing them to my review total.

First one was harder to find (I have saved all my reviews now so I can upload them again after they get deleted for whatever reason), but it was Knives and Skin ... the other one was easier to find. It was my review for The Father. Both had quite a good ratio of being liked. Father was 25 of 30 or something. So there may be a jealousy factor involved by whomever reports these

I also found out which movies I reviewed twice (a total of 5 titles) ;)

Right now I'm waiting for my Moon Knight review to be approved - the first draft was not approved. I think it had something to do with my advise to people who rate & review shows based on one episode alone - or not having watched them through to the end - well we'll see if that was it or the "Full Moon (K)night(s)" summary line ... I think that's funny and not offensive, but what do I know? :p

Take care and talk soon
