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 16 comments (16 from Metacritic) β 1 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 1 comment. 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.
βOne of the gentlest, most charming American movies of the past decade. Its subject is less food as something to cook than food as the binding and unifying element of dinner parties, friendship, and marriage.β

βEven if you don't give a shiitake mushroom about food, there's much to savor in this lively comedy with dramatic aftertastes.β

βIt hooks you up, happily, to your inner top chef.β

βJulie & Julia makes deboning a duck a feminist act and cooking a great meal a creative triumph. The stakes may not be as high as the kill-or-be-killed suspense of a summer action movie, but the sauces are way tastier.β
Dana Stevens, Slate Β· 80
βA consummate entertainment that echoes the rhythms and attitudes of classic Hollywood, it's a satisfying throwback to those old-fashioned movie fantasies where impossible dreams do come true. And, in this case, it really happened. Twice.β

βSome funny moments, pretty amazing Maryl Streep as always and that's it. Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci are an awesome team, that we also can see in The Devil Wears Prada and hopefully will be in more movies together. But Streep's charm could't save this movie. It's okay, but nothing special.β

βa bit undercooked yet utterly appetizing.. Julie And Julia Even though the performance is up to the mark, the chemistry among the characters isn't impactful or communicated to the audience and the primary reason would be the two different tales set back in a similar background yet fails to connect each other. As much as writing is appreciative and finely detailed, it certainly isn't smart or sincere enough to breed the crisp out of it. It is rich on technical aspects like background score, sounβ
