To start, look at how weird this chart of the film’s ratings distribution is: That weakness could discourage ambitious-but-controversial work. But the movie’s aggregate rating hides many of those divisions, giving us a perfect case study for understanding a big weakness of online rating systems: separating the controversial from the mediocre.
