      'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'comments', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields', 'post-formats' ),
      'taxonomies' => array( '' ),

}

function my_template ( $template_path ) {

  if ( get_post_type() == 'movie_reviews' ) { 

        if ( is_single() ) {

}

On activation hoock (part of the class)

function my_int () {

    register_post_type( 'movie_reviews',

              'name' => __('Produkt Reviews', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'singular_name' => __('Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'add_new' => __('Add New', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'add_new_item' => __('Add New Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'edit' => __('Edit', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'edit_item' => __('Edit Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'new_item' => __('New Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'view' => __('View', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'view_item' => __('View Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'search_items' => __('Search Produkt Reviews', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'not_found' => __('No Produkt Reviews found', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'not_found_in_trash' => __('No Produkt Reviews found in Trash', $this->var_sTextdomain),
              'parent' => __('Parent Produkt Review', $this->var_sTextdomain)
          ),
          'public' => true,
          'menu_position' => 15,
          'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'comments', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields', 'post-formats' ),
          'taxonomies' => array( '' ),
          'menu_icon' => plugins_url( 'assets/img/plugin.png', __FILE__ ),
          'has_archive' => true,
          'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'movie_reviews')
      )
    );

    flush_rewrite_rules();
}

// Edit: solved

Answer 1

Setting has_archive to true will display the post type archive at the location you mentioned.

OR you could leave it to false and create a page with slug movie_reviews

Make sure to visit the Permalinks settings page in your admin after you made the changes to flush the rewrite rules.
