Kindly please look into the Ratings, it hampers us a lot. Something is seriously wrong.
We are writing on behalf of Team Jeeudo (Nepali Movie with the highest number of votes 195 and with the highest number of reviews i.e 154). The last time we checked the movie was rated 9.7 that was about a month back, and our voting and reviews were above 150 then too. How is it even possible to get down to 6.1 suddenly, we did check your review chart and the minimum vote we have received is 7 by just one user, and suddenly a movie with just 16 votes are ahead of us. How is that possible? We also did check on the rating chart and it is showing 4users who has rated 2 and 4 other users has rated 1. We can understand someone must have got jealous of us, that's fine, however those voters are not showing on your database, just the number is shown, how is it even possible for a site like IMDb to not consider the IMDb users 154 reviews with 10/9 mostly and go ahead with just the vote of these 8 ppl who are unrecognisable. Kindly please look into this matter as its totally unfair and someone is trying to steal our hardwork and your site is vulnerable towards it. As an esteemed site like yours, we could kindly request you to go through the ratings and even all the reviews we have received. If that looks fine to you all, we will happily accept it, we strongly doubt there is some error too. Even if you check the youtube movie review we have 100% positive feedback. We would happily screen the movie to your team too, if granted as we definitely want a justified rating if we are to be in IMDb.
The movie was released on 2020 and it was released in only 9 theaters in North East India, the plan was to release world wide eventually, however the movie was shelved due to the COVID lockdown on its 13th day of its release, hence the team could not release the movie all over as planned. Even wen the theaters were shutdown the Movie has been screening locally in Community Halls and now in Schools. As a legitimate site, you can countercheck everything about the movie and justify the ratings. A little research on the contents on your site will only make you a more genuine Site.
Hoping to hear from you on this, as we do believe in IMDb, hence we recommend the viewers to go ahead on your site instead of Youtube and provide their real time reviews. Since ppl love our movie and they do take the effort to write a review on your site.
Kindly please don't take away our hard work.

Hi Michelle, Kindly please find below the link to our Movie page JEEUDO in your forum https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11976170/Our movie has 154 reviews in your database, and 98% has rated as 9 to10 out of 10, and please do review their comment too. How is it even possible for us to have a rating of 5.9 out of 10? Our movie was a major victim of the Pandemic lockdown, even though the movie has managed to entertain the audiences in community halls and schools. We always request the viewers to write their honest review on IMDb as we trust the portal for the database, instead of youtube or facebook pages. We are deeply saddened to see our current rating and it is embarrassing to get 5.9 rating when almost all the reviews are above 8/9 out of 10. We are yet to release the movie world wide and this kind of error will only hamper our hardwork. Kindly please look into it and you can also watch the public reviews on Youtube. We were able to screen the movie only on 9 theaters in north East india for 13 days and the lockdown started, we now are planning to release it world wide gradually. Till date we have never heard any negative review, I know its rare, but we have worked really hard to make such a content, it took us approx 6 years to complete the movie. Please please please resolve this error. Please justify our content and rating to be on IMDb, let not someone take away our hardwork. Till last month, even when we googled "highest rated nepali Movie" our movie was at the top, and to our notice, JEEUDO is the only movie with 150+ ratings and reviews. The more the reviews the more genuine the rating should have been isn't it. How come the movie with only 16 votes and no reviews be on top and a movie with 159 votes and 154 reviews is neglected. IMDb certainly should be aware about it, as the reputation matters.
Thanking you. Aalmist Productions.

I’m not really into ratings, but it sounds a bit unrealistic that any film would stay rated in 9.7 on IMDb. Not even The Godfather or Citizen Kane have that high rating (average).

Hi aalmistproduction -
IMDb ratings are calculated based on a weighted average rather than raw data averages, so while we accept and consider all votes received by users, not all votes have the same impact (or ‘weight’) on the final rating.
Additionally, if your film rating was previously 9.7 and is now lower (5.8), It's not uncommon for initial ratings to start high and then go down after a brief period of time. This is because titles with a relatively low total number of votes (around a hundred or less) are particularly susceptible to substantial changes in the weighted rating. When a title only has a few votes, it doesn't take many more subsequent votes for the rating to change.
For more information I encourage you to review our Ratings FAQ.
Cheers!
