About this extension
FlixMonkey adds IMDb, Metacritic, and Rotten Tomatoes ratings directly to Netflix, helping you decide what to watch before you press play. Ratings appear on title cards, hover previews, detail views, and search results. You can also filter out low-rated titles and quickly jump to IMDb for more details.
Available as a Chrome extension, Firefox add-on, and Greasemonkey userscript.
