Scan through database for movies that match input parameters #5

This one I am not 100% sure about.

The idea is to scan through the entire movie database and target all movies that fit the parameters given in the survey.

For example, if the user selects:

Rating:

Genre:

Runtime:

I want to target all movies that are PG & PG-13. Then get rid of all movies that are not Comedy, Action, or Horror. Then get rid of any movies that are longer than 2 hours.

From the rest of the movies, I want to take the average critic score from the 3 major movie critic websites(Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, Internet Movie Database(Not the same as TMDB)) and output ONLY the top 5 scored movies in order from highest rated to lowest rated.

ALL of this information is inside TMDB's API.
