IMDb stands for Internet Movie Database (IMDb). It is a great resource for any movie fan. One can view show times and trailers and also can find out all the minutes details regarding any movie. Amazon.com, which owns IMDb, has a pretty strong mobile Web presence. After all, there are very few Web sites that are better suited to having a mobile app or a mobile Web site than IMDb.

IMDb, recently released an application for the iPhone and iPod Touch. This application is a simple, mobile version of the website. The IMDb app puts all the features of imdb.com into iPhone.

All in all, the way information is displayed is wonderful. One of the problems with third-party apps is that viewing information is often unwieldy. Pictures aren’t correctly formatted for the mobile screen. But this is not the case with IMDb application. In short you’re not going to find any information in the IMDB app that isn’t available on the full IMDB with the biggest advantage is it neat design.

If you’re movie fans and need to access the movie DB on the go, remember to grab this free app for your iPhone. You can download it from App Store via this direct iTunes link.
