I don't agree. Let's begin by making clear that art is subjective so what I'm stating depends on personal taste.
I believe IMBD can help you identify the "most popular" movie. But it's up to you to decide if that's a good indicator for quality.
To give you an example, look at the top 10 songs in Spotify worldwide and tell me if those songs are the "best" songs the art form can provide.
After going deep on an art form, being music, painting, sculpting or film making, you start to develop a taste and an appetite for more complex expressions.
What would you prefer, votes of 10 people that have watched over 1000 films or votes of 1000 people that have watched 10 films?
