I believe the error message refers to the movie ID, i.e. movie_id.
Did you use a valid ID of a movie that exists here in the database?
What ID did you use?
An example with ID 550:

curl --request GET \
     --url 'https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/550?language=en-US' \
     --header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciO....eiTFklMcHIe3r...uHxjw9LKuY' \
     --header 'accept: application/json'

got it, thanks.
