Abstract This study presents a sentiment analysis system for IMDb movie reviews using Multinomial and Bernoulli Naive Bayes classifiers with Laplace smoothing. After preprocessing text data, both models were evaluated using 5-fold cross-validation. Results show that Multinomial Naive Bayes outperforms Bernoulli Naive Bayes, achieving higher accuracy and better handling of word frequency information in long textual reviews.
