A Full stack web application that serves as a personal media library to keep track of movies that you would like to watch as well as the ones that you have watched already.

In this application we utilized the Open Movie Database (OMDb) API to implement a search for movie titles. Ultimately, getReel allows the user to keep a list of movies they want to watch. Once the movie is selected, a modal generates a brief description of the movie including; movie poster, genre, cast, director(s), year of release and ratings. We also utilized The Movie database API to add a trailer feature of the selected movie. The user has the option to keep the movie in the watchlist or mark the movie as “watched”.
