How do you pick which user review to show on main page?
On the main page for a movie, you display one user review out of 42 user reviews, it also shows that 6 people found this review helpful while 10 found it not helpful. So why am I seeing this one while there are much more helpful rated ones. And what's the point of the helpful rating if it will not be used.

@WayTooBad Please see the question “How do you choose which review is displayed on a title page?” from the Ratings FAQ @ https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/ratings-faq/G67Y87TFYYP6TWAV
How do you choose which review is displayed on a title page?
To present a variety of different viewpoints, user reviews featured on a title page are periodically and frequently rotated. The choice of featured review is automated and is based on these criteria, the most notable being that reviews containing spoilers are excluded from the selection.
Users can also vote on whether they agreed or disagreed with existing reviews, and can sort the display of all reviews for a title based on chronological order, rating, usefulness etc. For an example of review listing for a title (and see all available display options) click here.
