★★★☆☆
2,184 votes across 1 source
Blended from TMDB 64 (100% weight); shrunk toward a 62 baseline by 2,184 total votes. Not a plain average: sources are weighted by reliability and vote count, and thin evidence is pulled toward the catalogue baseline.
- · Middling scores: fine for a casual watch, not a must-see.
- · An older title — pacing and style may feel dated.
