how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.
Nobody has rated this on FlickFeel yet. This is public discussion of this title, read into a curve. It is not a rating and it never becomes one.
Read from 44 comments (42 from Metacritic, 2 from TMDB reviews) — 9 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 9 comments. The shaded band is how wide the uncertainty actually is, and it is drawn to scale.
Not enough people said when to name this shape. The line is what the evidence draws, not a finding.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
It plays better than it reviews — the watch lands harder than the write-ups suggest.
“The film feels like a natural successor to "The Wedding Singer's" strange blend of humor and humanity, a gently silly comedy that's actually romantic without making anyone sick in the process. And that just might be a first.”
Sara Brady, Premiere · 100
“As corny as it is, there’s a lot of heart to 50 First Dates. But this happens more in spite of Adam Sandler than because of him. The heart comes from Drew Barrymore, really, and some of the supporting cast.”
Kevin Carr, Film Threat · 80
“Charming and effective feel-good fare.”
Simon Braund, Empire · 80
“As a comedy, 50 First Dates is standard Sandler, but as a love story it left me pleasantly buzzed, if not quite punch-drunk.”
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly · 75
“The movie doesn't have the complexity and depth of "Groundhog Day" (which I recently saw described as "the most spiritual film of our time"), but as entertainment it's ingratiating and lovable.”
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times · 75

“**Great laughs, ridiculously fun characters, and a sweet story make 50 First Dates a fantastic date night movie.** Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore bring their zany chemistry back together again to make my favorite Adam Sandler movie and one of the most entertaining RomComs a couple could enjoy. 50 First Dates delights with its ridiculous and heartwarming characters. Rob Schneider and Sean Astin’s characters are by far the most outrageous and most fun parts of the film. The far-fetched premise”
The Movie Mobread it ↗
“A harmless feel-good romantic comedy with Adam Sandler on usual form as a bit of a commitment-phobe. That is, until he meets "Lucy" (Drew Barrymore") and he really thinks he has found true love. The snag is that she has some pretty serious short-term memory issues and so each time they meet, he has a sort of first date groundhog day to get through. This is a bit of a one joke movie, though some of the daily variations inject a little extra to the, sometimes laboured, prevailing theme. Decent eno”
