Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
Scored from 310 calibrated IMDb reviewers, each re-centered on their own rating baseline before the title is ranked. Cohort: Films · 2000s (7,847 peers).
Summary
Nick Park and Steve Box's stop-motion Aardman feature sends inventor Wallace (voiced by Peter Sallis) and his silent dog Gromit into business as Anti-Pesto, a humane pest-control outfit that vacuums rabbits off the village's vegetable patches and keeps them caged in the cellar. With Lady Tottington's Giant Vegetable Competition days away, Wallace tries to cure the captured rabbits of their appetite using a mind-altering machine, and a huge, ravenous were-rabbit soon starts flattening the gardens by night. Rifle-toting Victor Quartermaine (Ralph Fiennes), who is courting Lady Tottington (Helena Bonham Carter), wants the beast shot; Wallace and Gromit are pledged to take it alive.
Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is a 2005 adventure, animation and comedy film. It is rated G. The runtime is 85 minutes. It was made in the United Kingdom. Its comedy subtype is Goofy.
310 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 320 reviewers with at least two reviews each feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 8,441 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 7,846 2000s films, not against the whole corpus.
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 Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit 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 310.
