Summary

Breakthrough is a 1979 drama and war film.

Only 31 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 31 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 2,405 1970s films, not against the whole corpus.
