how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score β 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 49 comments (49 from Metacritic) β 13 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 13 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 β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βThe movie's an unexpected end-of-summer tonic: a trash guilty pleasure with a healthy (if really violent) sense of outrage. It's also Rodriguez's freest movie yet, and possibly his best.β
Ty Burr, Boston Globe Β· 88
βDesigned and destined to win no awards, Machete is expert, cartoon-violent, lighthearted fun. Just the thing to send Junior back to school in a good mood.β
Richard Corliss, Time Β· 80
βIn the end, Machete may not be all that original, but it is fresh β fresh as a steel blade to the gut.β
Marjorie Baumgarten, Austin Chronicle Β· 78
βA gory, pulpy wink of an action thriller, was spun out of a parody trailer Rodriguez directed for the '70s-trash homage "Grindhouse" (2007). The trailer was sublime. As a feature, Machete is more fun than it isn't, but its deadpan mockery of exploitation clichΓ©s often slips a bit too close to being the real, schlocky thing.β
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly Β· 75
βForget modulation, nuance or storytelling, this is a movie that hits hard from first to last, no questions asked or logic followed.β
Eric Hynes, Movieline Β· 75
