Rating metrics: Help Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)

This album has a Bayesian average rating of 64.1/100, a mean average of 62.3/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 62.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 20.9.

Some of Neil Diamond's best 'latter' day songs here. Hello again, songs of life, love on the rocks, and, amazed and confused, are all excellent. One of Diamond's most consistent records. Terrible film though.

This movie was terrible, a vanity project that falls flat on it's face. The music is just as bad. Mr. Diamond may have been sincere writing this shlock but the whole mess screams EGO.
