Summary
José Padilha's Brazilian crime drama returns to Rio de Janeiro thirteen years after the first film. Lieutenant Colonel Roberto Nascimento, still commanding the BOPE special police unit, oversees the end of a riot at Bangu prison that produces a killing on live television, and the scandal moves him out of the unit and into a desk job as sub-secretary of intelligence for state security. His intelligence work and aggressive raids weaken the drug gangs but hand the favelas to police militias, who turn extortion into a business and run their own candidates for office. His public antagonist is the human-rights congressman Diogo Fraga, who is married to Nascimento's ex-wife and living with his teenage son.
Elite Squad 2: The Enemy Within is a 2010 crime, drama and thriller film. It is rated R. The runtime is 115 minutes. Its listed language is Portuguese. It was made in Brazil.
13,058 other films from the 2010s form the cohort it is ranked inside. Only 77 of its IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 77 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Elite Squad 2: The Enemy Within lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against Films · 2010s (13,059 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 77.
