The Notebook (2004)
High
7.8 ★Why we're confident in this score
12,316 ratings, tightly clustered. This score is unlikely to move more than 0.03 with new ratings.
The Math
Prior (global mean)m = 5.985
Prior weightC = 500
Observed ratingsn = 12,316
Observed averageR = 7.9
Posterior mean (Bayesian score)7.825
95% confidence interval±0.0278
Formula: posterior_mean = (n / (n + C)) × R + (C / (n + C)) × m. The confidence interval narrows as more ratings come in. Films with few ratings are pulled toward the global mean.
