Title search is not for "exact titles".
https://developers.themoviedb.org/3/search/search-movies
There are many homonymous films or with variations of addition in the title.
So any search usually returns several movie titles.
You can choose the first item in the JSON response but it won't necessarily be what you want.
There are plans to change this behavior.
See the To-Do List:
