Aggregate ratings are strongly favorable overall, with most ratings in the five-star category and a smaller share in the three- and four-star categories. These figures indicate positive reception among raters, but do not explain what viewers liked or disliked, and they are not a substitute for checking whether the DVD format and subtitles suit your needs.
