raw data of movies which can be useful for movie recommendation process
and to study nature of audience and their preference. Furthermore, it answer
the critical questions which help in finding of user & critics favorite genres,
actor, top directors etc.

and extracting it for further cleaning process
• After cleaning, filtering and sorting the dataset, it time to process the data,
• Here I use excel function such as advance filter, Text to column, mathematical
function, Pivot Table etc. and apply different combinations and visualize it to
understand it better.
• Expect cleaning process all analysis is done by using Pivot table and basic
excel function

 CLEANING THE DATA
• Extracted & arranged required column by using cut , copy & paste function
• Removed extra 'Â' character from movie title column
• By using 'Remove Duplicates' function drop 112 duplicate rows (to check duplicate I use
movie title, director name, imdb score, actor_1, Actor_2, actor_3, budget column)
• Checked Missing values and took appropriate action to each column
• Calculated absolute number of missing values with ‘Countblank' function for each column and
calculate percentage of null values per column
NOTE : Misleading values present in gross & budget column (difference in currency such as…..
budgets col recorded in Yuro, INR, won, etc. and gross col recorded in US dollars)

Steps :

• Create new column called 'decade' and which represents the decade to which every movie belongs to.
For example, the title_year year 1923, 1925 is represent as 1920s.
• Used pivot table to calculate total
• Used line chart to see overall growth of user interaction with films insights

User votes is rapidly growing after 1980s and directly proportionate to total number of released films as
this data is up to year 2016 so that's reason it showing downward trend after 2000 decade

AS IMDb was founded in 1960s we can see some growth after 1960s and internet invented in 1980s and
IMDb move on website in 1990s users vote growing rapidly.
