source

Blended from TMDB 60 (100% weight); shrunk toward a 62 baseline by 143 total votes. Provisional — few votes so far. 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.
