Scored from 498 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2010s (13,059 peers).
Summary
A hot dog named Frank discovers that food items don't go to a happy place after leaving the supermarket shelf, but are instead consumed by humans. He and his girlfriend Bun team up with other food products to escape their fate.
Sausage Party is a 2016 animation, comedy and adventure film. Greg Tierman and Conrad Vernon directed it, with Seth Rogen, Kristen Wiig and Jonah Hill in the cast. It was made in the United States. Its comedy subtype is Dark Comedy. It is rated R. The runtime is 89 minutes.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 13,058 2010s films, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 2,397 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 498 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 507 reviewers with at least two reviews each 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 Sausage Party 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 498.
