Summary

A lonely young writer in London develops a habit of following strangers through the city for inspiration, until one of his targets, a charismatic burglar named Cobb, catches him in the act and draws him into a world of breaking and entering. As the writer is pulled deeper into Cobb's schemes, the seemingly random encounters begin to reveal a more deliberate design.

Following is a 1998 crime, mystery and thriller film.

The calibrated figure is built from 223 of its IMDb reviewers. A broader pool of 230 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 4,081 1990s films, not against the whole corpus. Rotten Tomatoes carries a separate audience for the same title, 1,688 of whom clear the calibration test.
