Native Android app in Java that talks to The Movie Database (TMDB) over REST. Retrofit and Gson handle HTTP and JSON; RecyclerView shows a scrollable top-rated list; Picasso loads poster images.

Main screen loads one movie by ID (demo: The Matrix). Movie list opens a second screen with top-rated titles.

• Java, Android SDK (see app/build.gradle for compileSdk / minSdk)
• AndroidX (AppCompat, RecyclerView, ConstraintLayout)
• Retrofit 2 + Gson converter
• Picasso

1. Request a TMDB API key from TMDB API settings (free account).

2. In MainActivity.java and MovieListActivity.java, replace the placeholder:

   YOUR_TMDB_API_KEY

   with your key (do not commit real keys to a public fork—use a private clone or local.properties / BuildConfig if you extend the project).

3. Open the project in Android Studio, let Gradle sync, then Run on an emulator or device.

Standard Android Gradle workflow: Build → Make Project, or ./gradlew assembleDebug from the repo root.
