Is there an easier way to find a movie instead of having to flip page after page endlessly?
Leonard Maltin's 2012 Movie Guide
Search is incredibly slow and always seems to begin at the start. You can type in page numbers to do your own search, but this is pretty useless as a reference. It should have a fast index, and you should be able to add search constraints, such as three stars or better. The printed book is more useful than this waste of computer technology.
