What does WhatIsThisMovie do?

What Is This Movie is an AI movie finder that helps you identify films from imperfect memory. Share a plot fragment, a memorable line, an atmosphere, or a memorable ending—and it narrows down likely titles fast. Even if you only remember one line or a specific visual moment, you can turn it into search clues to reduce guesswork.

The tool supports multiple ways to provide input, including text and screenshots/posters. It uses AI-powered matching across a global movie database (TMDB) to generate a ranked set of candidates based on match probability. You can then verify results using detailed movie information and browse the best matches first.

It’s built for practical, clue-driven searching: more specific details generally produce better matches. You can also filter candidates by year, genre, and country to make confirmations quicker. If you’re trying to identify a story from a book instead of a film, there’s a related “What Book Is This?” option.

Pricing is available in a free tier and paid plans: Free Use costs $0 and includes limited movie searches with basic features and a basic model. There is also a 50-credit pack (one-time) priced at $6.9 (shown) / $4.9 (shown), where text searches use 2 credits and image searches use 5 credits. A monthly membership is shown at $9.9 (shown) / $8.9 (shown) per month and unlocks unlimited movie searches with the more advanced model.
