Summary
In 2415, four centuries after a virus wiped out most of humanity, the survivors live in the walled city of Bregna under the rule of the Goodchild dynasty. Aeon Flux, an elite assassin for the rebel Monican underground, is sent to kill Chairman Trevor Goodchild, but the mission unravels long-buried secrets about the city's origins and her own identity that force her to question which side she should be fighting for.
Released in 2005, Æon Flux is an action, adventure and science-fiction film.
The calibrated figure is built from 413 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 427 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,846 2000s 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 Æon Flux 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 · 2000s (7,847 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 413.
