A binned heatmap — where two audiences agreeURL copied

Critics against the crowd, 2,260 films that carry both scores. Each cell is a count, so overlapping points become density instead of a solid smear.

IMDB rating against Rotten Tomatoes rating

The ridge runs bottom-left to top-right: the two audiences broadly agree. The spread is widest in the middle, where a film can be a 60 to critics and a 7.5 to viewers, or the reverse.

This chart replaced an earlier one plotting rating against worldwide gross. That version rendered but told you nothing: 92% of films earn under a tenth of the top-grossing film, so linear bins pressed almost every row into the bottom of the chart. A skewed measure needs a log scale or a rank, not a bin.
