Why we're confident in this score

20,007 ratings, tightly clustered. This score is unlikely to move more than 0.02 with new ratings.

The Math

Prior (global mean)m = 5.985
Prior weightC = 500
Observed ratingsn = 20,007
Observed averageR = 8.51
Posterior mean (Bayesian score)8.445
95% confidence interval±0.0206

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.
