- Genre Management: Retrieve genres or associate them with movies.
- User Lists: Admins can create and manage custom movie lists.
- Reviews: Users can add and retrieve movie reviews.
- Spring Boot for rapid application development.
- Spring Security for authentication and access control.
- JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for secure transmission of user sessions.
