[Python] Python dictionary comprehension filtering

I have a list of dictionaries:

movies = [
{
"name": "The Help",
"imdb": 8.0,
"category": "Drama"
},
{
"name": "The Choice",
"imdb": 6.2,
"category": "Romance"
},
{
"name": "Colonia",
"imdb": 7.4,
"category": "Romance"
},
{
"name": "Love",
"imdb": 6.0,
"category": "Romance"
},
{
"name": "Bride Wars",
"imdb": 5.4,
"category": "Romance"
}
]


I want to filter them by IMDB > 5.5 :

[ { k:v for (k,v) in i.items() if i.get("imdb") > 5.5 } for i in movies]


which outputs:

[{'name': 'The Help', 'imdb': 8.0, 'category': 'Drama'},
{'name': 'The Choice', 'imdb': 6.2, 'category': 'Romance'},
{'name': 'Colonia', 'imdb': 7.4, 'category': 'Romance'},
{'name': 'Love', 'imdb': 6.0, 'category': 'Romance'},
{}]


When the IMDB is lower than 5.5, It returns an empty dictionary. any ideas?
