Yes, http://www.criticker.com/profile/hyomil.  Biggest problems:
1. No support for TV shows nor plans to.
2. Titles for foreign-language films can't be set to display the English translation instead, making them practically impossible to recognize.  So you look to the thumbnails, which are very small and not even of the movie posters.  If you could do searches using the IMDb ID, this would help, but you can't, despite the fact that all their movies have an IMDb ID on their page.  If anyone knows of a search engine that allows searching for substrings in URLs within pages, please post.
3. You have to fill out a form to add new movies, including all the actors, when they could easily just import them from IMDb.  listal auto-imports IMDb's data when you enter an IMDb URL.  I made a new post about this here: http://www.videodb.info/forum_en/index.php?topic=2063.msg10421#msg10421

It does have the auto-updating Probable Score Index and Taste Compatibility Index going for it, though.  I made a post on the forum pointing out features listal has that criticker doesn't and it was never posted, so that made me leery of their site as well.  If they add these features, I'll give them another chance, but I've been monitoring the RSS feed of their blog for over a year and there have been few changes.

 It is using a "movie DNA" type of system, in order to allow you to find movies similar to a particular one.

Yes, this is next on my ToDo list after examining the Allmovie tones, moods, and themes.  I'm going to compare those against Jinni's genes.  Interesting thing about them is they're usually generated not by someone manually picking them but by feeding a bunch of movie reviews into a Natural Language Processing program that selects the appropriate genes based on the wording of the reviews.  So the ability they have to Vote yes or no on each gene is quite needed and appropriate.
