The Sea Beast
Scored from 255 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2020s (7,930 peers).
Summary
In an era when monstrous sea beasts terrorize the oceans, legendary hunter Jacob Holland sails aboard the Inevitable under Captain Crow. When a young orphan named Maisie stows away, she and Jacob are stranded at sea and forced to befriend a giant red creature they call Red, leading them to question the centuries-old war between hunters and beasts.
Released in 2022, The Sea Beast is an action, adventure and animation film.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,929 2020s films, not against the whole corpus. 255 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 269 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 147 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately.
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 The Sea Beast 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 · 2020s (7,930 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 255.
