Rating movies on Amazon Prime helps improve your future recommendations and benefits others. The way to rate movies on Amazon Prime isn’t obvious, so it’s normal to be a little confused about how to do it. There are, however, several methods that allow you to rate movies quickly and easily. You can rate movies using the customer review option, through the improving recommendations option, which will only improve your personal recommendations, or on the IMDB website.
