There's nothing quite like finishing a film or show that completely hits the mark, and then wondering... what now? Whether it's the mood, the style, or just that unexplainable feeling a great story gives you, Criticker makes it easy to find more titles that scratch the same itch.

Because everyone's taste is unique, our recommendation system is built around you: your ratings, your favorite genres, and your personal "taste compatibility" with other users. But beyond the personalized suggestions you'll see across the site, Criticker also gives you powerful tools to explore and discover on your own. Here's how to dive deeper and find titles that share something special with the ones you already love.

Every film, show, and game on Criticker has its own Similar Titles tab. You'll find it right on that title's page, next to its overview, reviews, and collections.

This section is powered by finding patterns across the database, including shared genres, collections, and filmmakers, resulting in a list of other titles that feel similar in theme. If you're looking up Raised By Wolves, for example, you'll find other modern, intelligent sci-fi shows like Devs, Altered Carbon, or Brave New World and even some movies with shared traits.

Click any title in that list, and you can immediately open its Similar Titles page too, letting you move from one recommendation to the next in an endless chain of discovery.

Collections are another great way to explore related works. These are user-created lists that group titles by a shared idea: sometimes obvious, sometimes weirdly specific.

A title like Gosford Park might appear in collections like Non-Linear, Whodunit, or even A group of people locked/trapped in one place. Each of those gives you a new angle to explore, beyond the surface-level similarities of genre or release year.

Because Collections are community-driven, they reflect the creativity and diversity of Criticker's users. They can lead you to surprising parallels that algorithmic recommendations often miss, like finding that your favorite sci-fi thriller shares emotional DNA with an animated coming-of-age story.

You can find the Collections tab on any title page, or browse all Collections from the main navigation. And if you don't find one that fits your particular niche, you can always create your own, adding your personal touch to Criticker's growing web of connections.

Sometimes, you want to be more hands-on with your search. Criticker's Filters give you a simple yet powerful way to zero in on titles that match a specific mood or period.

From the Full Database for films or for games, you can combine criteria like:

You can also sort by popularity, language, or even filmmaker, and then save your filters for later or share them with friends.

This method is especially effective if you're trying to find hidden gems. For example, if you loved The Witch (2015), try filtering for "Horror" and "2010s" with lesser popularity, ordered by PSI; you'll instantly uncover dozens of similarly atmospheric titles that never hit the mainstream radar.

Sometimes, finding similar titles isn't just about recommendations, it's about following creative threads. On any title page, Criticker's detailed information lets you easily jump to:

Exploring in this way gives you a sense of artistic continuity; how certain creators evolve across projects, or how themes resurface in unexpected forms.

Maybe you adored The Last of Us. Click through to see what else its creators, Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann have done, or trace the cast members to find lesser-known performances that carry the same emotional power.

Whether you're exploring Similar Titles, diving into Collections, or experimenting with filters, every click on Criticker is another chance to uncover something unexpected.

The best discoveries often happen by accident: when one film leads you to another that isn't exactly the same, but resonates in a similar way. Criticker is designed to make those happy accidents happen more often.

So next time you finish a series that leaves a hole in your week, or a game that you can't stop thinking about, head to its page on Criticker. Within minutes, you'll have a whole new list of titles waiting to capture that same spark.
