A group of American college students travel to a remote Swedish village to attend a midsummer festival. What initially appears to be an idyllic celebration in nature becomes increasingly unsettling as the group encounters the village's disturbing traditions and rituals.
Midsommar (2019) is a film IMDb files under the horror, drama and thriller genres. It is rated R. It stars Florence Pugh, Jack Reynor and Will Poulter. The runtime is 147 minutes. It was made in the United States. It was directed by Ari Aster.
A second review pool sits behind it as well: 1,712 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 3,052 IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, and those are the ones the calibrated score reads; a separate, broader pool of 3,232 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. 13,058 other films from the 2010s form the cohort it is ranked inside.
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 Midsommar 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 3,052.
