Summary
At St. Vladimir's Academy, a secretive boarding school for vampire royalty and their half-human guardians, dhampir Rose Hathaway trains to protect her best friend, Moroi princess Lissa Dragomir. When threatening messages and dark omens suggest someone inside the school wants Lissa dead, Rose must uncover the culprit while navigating teen rivalries, forbidden feelings for her mentor Dimitri, and the looming threat of the undead Strigoi.
Released in 2014, Vampire Academy is an action, comedy and drama film.
The cohort it is ranked inside is 2010s films — 13,059 of them. The calibrated figure is built from 144 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 154 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead.
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 Vampire Academy 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 144.
