Provisional — few votes so far
No usable ratings yet. Not a plain average: sources are weighted by reliability and vote count, and thin evidence is pulled toward the catalogue baseline.
- · Rated by only a few hundred people, so the score is less reliable.
- · Middling scores: fine for a casual watch, not a must-see.
- · An older title — pacing and style may feel dated.
