Google Movies

Yesterday, Google announced a new "movie:" operator. Among other features of this service, the movie listings link to reviews. You can search for the film by title or any other aspect -- thus, for example, [movie: howard hughes] or [aviator] will put you one link away from a review page for "The Aviator".

I'm not always enthusiatic about Google's additions and changes; but this one seems brilliant. (It's even got a touch of humor: to wit, "No movie critics were harmed or even used in the making of this page.") I would suggest only a central reviews page -- to which I would link, of course.

Now if only Google would add book and music reviews ....
