Challenge: Use the filter Method to Extract Data from an Array

Link to the challenge:

in your fitler callback, you try to access list.imdbRating, but your object has only a property called rating

Hello!

That’s because you’re mapping the list and extracting only the title and rating, converting each item in the list to this before you filter it:

{
    title: '...',
    rating: 'N.N',
}

Hence the property doesn’t exist and is always false.
