★★★½☆
4,343 votes across 1 source
Blended from TMDB 80 (100% weight); shrunk toward a 62 baseline by 4,343 total votes. Not a plain average: sources are weighted by reliability and vote count, and thin evidence is pulled toward the catalogue baseline.
- · Long — about 3.1 hours.
- · An older title — pacing and style may feel dated.
