Summary
Ten years after the Trade Federation's defeat, a separatist movement led by former Jedi Count Dooku threatens the Galactic Republic. While Obi-Wan Kenobi investigates a mysterious clone army being bred on Kamino, his apprentice Anakin Skywalker is assigned to protect Senator Padme Amidala from assassins, and the two fall in love as Anakin wrestles with darker impulses. Their paths converge on Geonosis, where the Clone Wars erupt.
Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones is a 2002 action, adventure and fantasy film.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,846 2000s films, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 28,129 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. 2,321 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 2,470 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 Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones 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 2,321.
