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 32 comments (30 from Metacritic, 2 from TMDB reviews) — 2 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 2 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.

“But the funniest part of the movie without a doubt was the one line of the correctly named Silent Bob when giving advice to Dante on girls and lasagne.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Randal is a beautiful hostile piece of work that only could have come from America. He's the sort of guy who never put in a quality day at the office in his life, but somehow probably winds up winning the biggest lotto drawing ever with a ticket he stole from his loser best friend's Quickie Mart.”
Brad Laidman, Film Threat · 90
“Though the politically incorrect language is tough enough to have earned Clerks an initial NC-17 rating (re-rated R on appeal), its exuberance gives it an alive and kicking feeling that is welcome and rare. [19 Oct 1994]”
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times · 90
“Nothing, no matter how outrageous, is beyond Smith, and his willingness to flaunt cinematic taboos is one of the reasons why Clerks is such a unqualified success.”
James Berardinelli, ReelViews · 88
“A randy, irreverent, slice-of-life no-budgeter that's played for laughs and gets them.”
Todd McCarthy, Variety · 80
“Smith's script simply crackles with an endless succession of humorous gags and on-the-ball observations while Anderson's brilliant performance as the shop assistant from hell is worthy of a film 100 times as expensive.”
Clark Collis, Empire · 80

“With "Clerks," the only thing that's really up for debate is whether this film is the Thomas Jefferson or George Washington on the Mount Rushmore of independent filmmaking. It's one of those movies you wish you'd found at a younger age. High-school-aged me would've quoted this thing all throughout what was left of my teens and all the way up into young adulthood. Memorable characters, fun situational humor and some truly hilarious conversational dialogue — what wouldn't I have loved? Alas, I fou”

“I really don't get the attraction. I suspect though that you North Americans like it because It's something you probably experience everyday. I don't know. I just find it very laborious. I'm going to watch the sequels just to see how it changes and I'm going to keep the films because maybe I'll get it sometime. Unlikely, though.”

“Over the years, I have really enjoyed Smith's comic book writing, but this is the only film so far I have seen him direct. My cinephilic friends tend to dismiss his recent works, but this was very enjoyable. I like the influence he has had on independent cinema. 1994 certainly proved to be an important year for it, with the smash successes that independent studios had with 'Clerks' and 'Pulp Fiction'. I hope he sticks to directing films that he himself writes. I have the feeling he wants to expa”

“**A rude but understandable film.** I just saw this film, and honestly I was hoping for a slightly different comedy, with a more elaborate, more conventional structure and not based so much on endless dialogues. It is, however, an independent film, made a little outside of what traditional circuits and big studios are, and the budget is limited. If we consider all this, I think we can understand the film better. The film basically accompanies a day in the life of two commercial employees w”
