Hi, I noted that you are handling the field rated (boolean and json object) in two different ways. May I ask you why you aren't simply returning a negative value in case the movies wasn't rated? Thanks

Hi @blackbelt
This was just a design choice at the time but it's too late too change now. It would break every client if I changed it. For now you'll have deal with both cases.
