Evaluation.
8 out of the 10 films show that these films appealed mostly to males under 18, and another 2 including males 18-29. I think these numbers were quite accurate because they have a large sample size, where as the films with the highest ratings by female audiences have a more concentrated figures. From this I can safely say that we will not target females over 45! Our audience will most likely be males from 16-29 because of these figures above.
