Last Breath
Scored from 67 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2010s (13,059 peers).
Summary
In September 2012, saturation diver Chris Lemons was working on a manifold nearly 100 metres beneath the North Sea when his dive support vessel, the Bibby Topaz, lost dynamic positioning in a storm and drifted off station. His umbilical, which carried heat, light, breathing gas and communications, snagged and tore, leaving him alone in the dark on the seabed with only the few minutes of gas in his emergency bailout cylinder. This British documentary reconstructs the hours that followed using the actual helmet-camera, ROV and vessel footage recorded that night, cut together with interviews with Lemons, dive supervisor Duncan Allcock and fellow diver Dave Yuasa.
Last Breath (2019) is a film IMDb files under the documentary and drama genres. It was made in the United Kingdom. It is rated TV-MA. The runtime is 90 minutes.
Only 67 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 76 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 13,058 2010s films, not against the whole corpus.
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 Last Breath 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 67.
