it depends on the movie, the resolution, other filters,...
as a rule of thumb i would estimate:

max filesize with sharp bicubic will be 30-40% higher than with bilinear, the others lie in between.

meaning that e.g. if you get a comp-check-perc of 50% with sharp bicubic you might reach about 65% with bilinear.
the picture will be more blurred but the codec macroblocks will be less visible.

for a perfect rip you need the correct balance of these 4 factors:
compressibility - bitrate - resolution - filters.

and a litte experience
