Summary

Joy of Sex is a 1984 comedy and romance film.

A second review pool sits behind it as well: 16 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. The cohort it is ranked inside is 1980s films — 3,141 of them. Only 16 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 17 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
