Build a Mubi watchlist from your film criteria

An agent searched Mubi for lesser-known films that fit a user’s preferences and added 10 picks to their watchlist.

Done with ChatGPT Agent· Intermediate· Jul 2025

What they did
A user gave ChatGPT Agent a set of film filters: movies from 2015 to 2025, a mix of countries and styles, and no mainstream Oscar-type picks. The agent explored Mubi’s catalog, chose 10 titles it thought matched, and wrote short takeaways for each. After that, it added the selections to the user’s watchlist.
How it went
The user said the process was efficient and spared them from adding each film by hand. They also noted that another research tool might have found the titles more quickly, but it would not have handled the watchlist updates.
Tips
This works best when your criteria are specific enough to narrow the pool, but still leave room for the agent to choose. Before any changes are made, have it show the list and wait for your approval.

Try it yourself with ChatGPT Agent

Open my Mubi account and search the catalog for films that fit these filters: [genres], [release years], [countries], [length], [mood], and anything to avoid such as [avoid list]. Pick 10 titles, write a short verdict for each, and pause to show me the full list. Do not add, remove, send, or submit anything until I confirm. After I approve, add the selected films to my watchlist and then stop.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
