Hi mikhailtpm,

By using the callback param, you're actually calling JSONP and what this is doing is wrapping your JSON in a JavaScript function. Regular JSON is returned by not specifying the callback param. I'm not sure which you're expecting, but it is working as designed (regular JSON):

{"adult":false,"backdrop_path":"/1edydp18PYIaihYLfG52e3v9jwQ.jpg"...

Vs. JSONP (callback=test):

test({"adult":false,"backdrop_path":"/1edydp18PYIaihYLfG52e3v9jwQ.jpg"...

Cheers.
