Help adding a critic review that keeps getting declined

Hello,

I'm looking for assistance with an issue involving the External Critic Reviews section for my film, The Beast in the Cave (2026).

I have repeatedly attempted to submit a legitimate published review from Search My Trash, but IMDb continues to automatically decline the submission. I am not receiving a clear explanation as to why the review is being rejected, and I would appreciate someone looking into this issue.

The publication in question is Search My Trash:

https://www.searchmytrash.com/movies/beastinthecave(2026).shtml

Search My Trash is an established independent film review website with a substantial history of publishing film criticism. In fact, the publication has already been accepted and included in IMDb's External Critic Reviews section for hundreds of other films. This is why I am having difficulty understanding why this particular review is being rejected.

To clarify, this is not a promotional article, advertisement, filmmaker interview, or general mention of the film. It is a dedicated review of The Beast in the Cave (2026), published by an independent third-party film review website. It is exactly the type of editorial coverage that the External Critic Reviews section is intended to document.

I completely understand that IMDb has submission guidelines and eligibility requirements. However, when an established publication with a long history of inclusion on IMDb is repeatedly rejected without a clear explanation, it becomes difficult to understand what specific requirement is not being met.

Can someone manually add it to the section for me? I have added hundreds of articles to films sections and this is the only time I have had this problem.

I am not asking IMDb to make an exception to its policies. I am simply asking for a legitimate published critic review to be evaluated consistently with the many other Search My Trash reviews already included in the database.

I would genuinely appreciate assistance getting this resolved.

 Thank you for your time.
