@KirkPicard, There are three metrics that IMDb uses related to films, television productions and other media: 1) Number of votes 2) Average user rating - this average is adjusted to remove attempts to bias the result 3) The MOVIEmeter ranking. STARmeter, MOVIEmeter, and COMPANYmeter are rankings of every person, title and company in IMDb and only available on IMDbPro. STARmeter, MOVIEmeter, and COMPANYmeter provide industry professionals with insights into the popularity of film and television productions as well as the people and companies that make them.

The Message The story of prophet "Muhammad" and the delivery of the message of God "Allah." قصة النبي "محمد" وإيصال رسالة الله "الله". = = = Punjabi - ~90 million native speakers 9. The Legend of Maula Jatt From times untold where legends are written in soil with blood, a hero is born. Maula Jatt, a fierce prizefighter with a tortured past seeks vengeance against his arch nemesis Noori Natt, the most feared warrior in the land of Punjab. ਖ਼ੂਨ ਨਾਲ ਮਿੱਟੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਲਿਖੀਆਂ ਗਈਆਂ ਅਣਗਿਣਤ ਕਥਾਵਾਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ, ਇੱਕ ਨਾਇਕ ਦਾ ਜਨਮ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ। ਮੌਲਾ ਜੱਟ, ਇੱਕ ਤਸੀਹੇ ਭਰੇ ਅਤੀਤ ਵਾਲਾ ਬਹਾਦਰ ਪਹਿਲਵਾਨ, ਆਪਣੇ ਕੱਟੜ ਦੁਸ਼ਮਣ ਨੂਰੀ ਨੱਤ ਤੋਂ ਬਦਲਾ ਲੈਣਾ ਚਾਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਜੋ ਪੰਜਾਬ ਦੀ ਧਰਤੀ ਦਾ ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਡਰਾਉਣਾ ਯੋਧਾ ਹੈ। = = = Bhojpuri - ~53 million native speakers 28. Pyar Kiya Toh Nibhana On the search for their respective soulmates, a man and girl meet and fall in love with each other. However, a sudden change in his behaviour breaks her heart, setting her on the path of retribution. अपना-अपना सोलमेट के खोज में एगो मरद आ लइकी के मुलाकात हो जाला आ एक दोसरा से प्यार हो जाला. हालांकि ओकर व्यवहार में अचानक बदलाव ओकर दिल टूट जाला, जवना से ओकरा के बदला के राह पर आ जाला। = = = I confirmed that IMDb does not allow searching for the language Javanese
