Simple and perfect ;)

<?php
$match = array();
$url = 'http://www.something.com/path/tt0425235/somethingelse/bla/bla/bla/bla/?bla=bla';
preg_match( '/\/path\/([a-z]+([\d]+))+\/?/i' , $url , $match );
print_r( $match );
?>

Bye!

$url = 'http://www.something.com/path/tt0425235/';

list($id) = preg_split('~^.*/tt(\d+)/$~', $url, 2, PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE | PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY) + array(NULL);

If it can't find your pattern, $id will be NULL.
