Problem proposal

Welcome to your technical test! Here's the problem you're trying to solve:

A developer was tasked to create a Rails API from scratch that would list upcoming movie releases on Brazil. After some time, the team realized that the codebase might need a bit of a refactoring, and you were given the opportunity to help! We ask the following things from you:

• Analyze the code from the repository and check for possible problems/improvement oportunities;
• Open one or more PRs with your suggestions. You can refactor the code, explaining the reasons why you changed the code on commit messages.
• You can also add new functionalities if you'd like!

Proposed application

• API written in Rails;
• All endpoints should return JSON unless specified.

Endpoints:
