Summary

Plain Clothes is a 1988 comedy, mystery and romance film.

A second review pool sits behind it as well: 6 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. The cohort it is ranked inside is 1980s films — 3,141 of them. Only 17 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 17 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
