From what I can figure out the sentiment analysis engine, looks through the people you're following on twitter and sees what movies they've talked about, and compares that against movie ratings and possibly overall number of tweets, to recommend you a movie ? Anyone else have any other insights.

I think it simply matches tweets with movie titles. For example in my timeline somebody is saying "What's I'm getting from @t's TRON tweets is that I should skip the movie and instead play the game and read the graphic novel.", which fflick translates (wrongly) to the movie "play the game".
