Summary
Munich, February 1943: Sophie Scholl and her brother Hans, students in the White Rose resistance circle, leave anti-Nazi leaflets in the lecture halls of Munich University and are caught by a caretaker as the last sheets fall into the atrium. Held at Gestapo headquarters, Sophie is questioned over several days by interrogator Robert Mohr, first denying everything with a cover story, then defending the group's arguments to his face. The case is pushed toward Roland Freisler's People's Court at speed. Marc Rothemund's German drama draws its interrogation scenes from transcripts recovered from East German archives, with Julia Jentsch as Scholl.
Sophie Scholl: The Final Days is a 2005 biography, crime and drama film. It was made in Germany, in German. It runs 2h 1m.
Only 98 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 100 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. The cohort it is ranked inside is 2000s films — 7,847 of them.
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 Sophie Scholl: The Final Days 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 98.
