I know it's only 9 votes but but what the hell? *lol* It's getting good buzz, surely the rating will be higher.

Something is definitely wrong with the math in the rating because by clicking on user rating you can see the actual distribution of votes. There have been 12 votes--6x10,a 9, a 8, a 7, and 3 2s. so average should be 7.5.

This is a Travesty and an injustice to the immortal legacy that is Paul Giamatti! The rating system is flawed and IMDB should be exposed for their careless and unforgiveable crimes against humanity! The average rating of this film is obviously a 7.2 and we should accept no less!!
As far as i'm concerned, Jake Gyllenhall will always be the Bubble Boy.
For what is worth, I messaged IMDB about the discrepancy.

I saw it at Sundance and it was one of the three best films I saw this year. Of course that is my opinion, but out of a strong field of films, this was fantastic.

Weighted Average Ratings
IMDb publishes weighted vote averages rather than raw data averages. Various filters are applied to the raw data in order to eliminate and reduce attempts at 'vote stuffing' by individuals more interested in changing the current rating of a movie than giving their true opinion of it.
The exact methods we use will not be disclosed. This should ensure that the policy remains effective. The result is a more accurate vote average.
actually, i was lucky enough to catch it one of the last times it was playing at sundance, and it was in the runnings for the audience choice award, i don't know if it won or not...but the movie is amazing
