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) — 13 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — 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.

“The tension of the inevitable is what keeps this flick enjoyable”

“In the first Mechanic is an ordinary action movie with several good action scenes.”

“Secondly, he tries to thriller, the scene of the murder of another killer is simply terrible, it does not have even 1/10 of a share **** thriller.”

“Thirdly, Mechanic suddenly wants to be a drama, coping even worse with it.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Feels fresh and satisfying. Maybe it's the presence of Jason Statham, the British action star who has a physicality like no other actor out there right now.”
Dana Stevens, Slate · 80
“Couple that with actual acting-Statham is the most winning action hero around, and Foster brings some nuance that the script probably doesn't deserve-and it's bloody fun.”
Josh Modell, The A.V. Club · 75
“To the extent that it's original, The Mechanic is insane, bordering on gloriously insane.”
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle · 75
“Like the original, it is a moody, atmospheric film, one boasting significantly more depth than your typical blow-'em-up.”
Mike Scott, New Orleans Times-Picayune · 75
“Short, fast and nasty, The Mechanic is considerably more fun than the rather lethargic original.”
Lou Lumenick, New York Post · 75

“When Jason Statham is good he is very good. In this movie I think he is very good as the silent, deadly killer for hire. It is a straightforward killer/action/thriller. The story is nothing new but it is a well working story which is nicely executed. The story is, as I wrote above, not very original. Killer for hire finds out that his next target is his mentor and friend. As the professional he is he executes the job anyway but later discoverers that not all is as is should be. Time for reven”

“The Mechanic is unable to fix its mechanically mundane plot. “Amat Victoria Curran - Victory Loves Preparation”. Foreshadowing words engraved on the glossy barrel of Sutherland’s powerful pistol. Euphemism aside, West presents a remake of the Bronson-led action thriller that coincidentally features no vehicle mendings. That’s because, for those of you who aren’t subjugated to criminal organisations (hopefully all of you...), “mechanic” is slang for hitman. Despite Statham being bald and able to ”
