Ratings are inherently a matter of opinion, but I understand what you're saying. Speaking of ratings, I've noticed that the usual 4-point scale for rating movies seems to have a big gap between 3 stars and 2-1/2 stars. A reviewer who give a movie 3 stars will say mainly good things about it, whereas a reviewer who gives a movie 2-1/2 stars will typically tear it apart.
