Summary

Released in 1989, Jacknife is a drama and war film.

Only 25 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 25 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 3,140 1980s films, not against the whole corpus. Rotten Tomatoes carries a separate audience for the same title, 44 of whom clear the calibration test.
