Summary

Released in 1996, White Squall is an adventure and drama film.

4,081 other films from the 1990s form the cohort it is ranked inside. Only 59 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 65 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 402 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately.
