No clear way to post a review of an entire season... or is there?
Hello. I posted a review for Season 5 of THE CROWN. It was approved and uploaded. After I finished Season 6, I decided to post a review for that Season.

"Lizbeth Eden" adding fake credits to their name?
Hi, all! I use IMDb all the time to help me identify actors/actresses, read cool trivia, leave and read reviews, etc. I recently began rewatching one of my favorite series, Narcos (2015), and went to its IMDb page to look.

Review declined, that shouldn't have been declined. Why?
There is no reason why this review should've been declined as it violates nothing in the submissions guidelines. No fowl language, no comments about others IMDb reviews, no criticism about the rating system, no words directed personally towards the performers in the film, nothing political, nothing

Not responsible for a movie title I wish to review.
220118-024537-991604 I'm not going to post the name of the movie here, but let's just say that it has a racial slur in it. I did not repeat the word in the initial review that was declined. I simply pointed out the number of times it was utilized and the fact that the director must have had to ha

Is it taboo to criticize the Blue Fairy in Disney’s Pinocchio (2022)?
My 6-star review was polite, its criticisms were no different from other reviews, and it actually offered some new information. Why was it declined? Too slow for kids, too woke for me Apparently Disney just can't help being woke. Despite this film's many virtues -- notably the really beautiful
