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 39 comments (23 from Reddit, 12 from Metacritic, 4 from TMDB reviews) — 4 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 4 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.

“We would rewind the dream sequence where Dick clocks Ian with the phone and then kills him with the air conditioner and watch it like 10 times in a row. There was something about the way they had teeth spray out of Tim Robbins mouth that would have us rolling on the floor.”

“It's after Rob describes all the horrible things he did while Laura and he were dating. He asks the audience to think of the five worst things they've ever done in a relationship with no sugar coating. It was a very human moment. A that part of the film we're definitely set up to be judging Rob pretty harshly. But I do think that if we're honest with ourselves, we all probably have done some shitty things at one point or another.”

“A guaranteed pleasure for anyone who ever loved pop music, owned a record collection or suffered in love”
Desson Thomson, Washington Post · 100
“With its knowing take on men, messed-up romance and music, is like one long, hook-filled pop song for the eyes.”
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer · 100
“It's so spry and lively and warm that you want to dance to it.”

“When Rob is standing in the rain screaming "CHARLIE! YOU FUCKING BITCH! LET'S WORK IT OUT!", trips over a curb, then walks away screaming and crying in his cool leather jacket...that's cinema, baby”

“Really great movie, one of those "must watch" type of movies. Great acting & segments, iconic moments, screams early 2000's & is a great throwback for us older folks.”

“Seen this one a few times over the years, still great each viewing with John Cusack in his element, might even argue should've been nominated for an Oscar. I'm not a music fan but still liked that element and features a good supporting cast. **3.75/5**”
