Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind
Scored from 36 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2010s (13,059 peers).
Summary
Marina Zenovich's HBO documentary traces Robin Williams from a solitary Midwestern childhood and a Juilliard classroom he shared with Christopher Reeve to the San Francisco and Los Angeles clubs where his improvisation made his name, then through Mork & Mindy, cocaine and the death of John Belushi, and a screen career running from Good Morning, Vietnam to Good Will Hunting. It is assembled largely from Williams's own voice — stand-up sets, outtakes, home video and archive interviews — with recollections from Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg, David Letterman, Steve Martin, Eric Idle, Pam Dawber and his son Zak. The film is direct about the compulsion behind the performing and about his final years.
Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind is a 2018 biography, comedy and documentary film. It runs 1h 56m. Its country of origin is listed as the United States. Its certificate is TV-14.
The cohort it is ranked inside is 2010s films — 13,059 of them. Rotten Tomatoes carries a separate audience for the same title, 26 of whom clear the calibration test. Only 36 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 38 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
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 Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind 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 36.
