Tyrannosaur
Scored from 108 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2010s (13,059 peers).
Summary
Joseph is a widower in working-class Leeds, unemployed, drinking steadily, and prone to sudden violence he can neither explain nor stop. Ducking out of a confrontation one afternoon, he hides in a Christian charity shop and meets Hannah, a volunteer from the comfortable end of town who offers to pray for him; he treats her kindness as condescension until it becomes clear that her marriage to James, all civility in public, is violent behind the front door. Peter Mullan and Olivia Colman play the pair in Paddy Considine's first feature as writer-director, expanded from his short film Dog Altogether.
Tyrannosaur is a 2011 drama film. Its certificate is R. It runs 1h 32m. Its country of origin is listed as the United Kingdom.
13,058 other films from the 2010s form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 108 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 113 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead. Rotten Tomatoes carries a separate audience for the same title, 598 of whom clear the calibration test.
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 Tyrannosaur 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 108.
