Summary

Mermaids is a 1990 comedy, drama and romance film.

Only 76 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 76 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 1,000 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 4,081 1990s films, not against the whole corpus.
