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 47 comments (45 from Metacritic, 2 from TMDB reviews) — 9 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 9 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.

“Amadeus’s introduction oozes character and vulnerability, quickly enchanting the viewer.”

“elle me torture les esgourdes et me vrille les nerfs. Or, sur deux plombes et demi, c'est une indigestion des "oeuvres" cuculs et criardes du nabot jacassant, rigolard et agité, le pire étant les opéras que l'on ne se tape pas en entier (putain Mozart m'a tuer) mais encore de trop longues minutes (de grâce, cessez tout ce bruit je vous prie...)”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
It reviews better than it plays — admired more than it is enjoyed.
“Remains the most popularly successful film ever to render the inner life of an artist.”
F. X. Feeney, L.A. Weekly · 100
“It still soars, but now it seems richer, more expansive. Amadeus reminds us that movies can be lyrical as well as vulgar, ambitious as well as playful, brilliant as well as down and dirty -- just like Amadeus himself.”
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune · 100
“One of the finest qualities of Amadeus is that it reminds us of those rare occasions when an Oscar sweep is actually merited.”
Gregory Weinkauf, New Times (L.A.) · 100
“This expands an already long movie to more than three hours, but this time there's no getting enough of a good thing. [2002 Director's Cut]”
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle · 100
“Amadeus is about as close to perfection as movies get. [2002 Director's Cut]”
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News · 100

Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.

“_**Lively costume biography about Mozart’s last nine years in Austria**_ Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham) is a competent but mediocre composer in Vienna, Austria, in the late 1700s. He recognizes the God-given genius of the younger Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Tom Hulce) and struggles with bitter envy. The story is told in flashback as Salieri shares it with a cleric decades later at an asylum. “Amadeus” (1984) is an entertaining costume drama that successfully takes you back to Vienna fro”

“Rarely can I think of a more worthy multi-award winning performance than that from F. Murray Abraham in this masterfully crafted - if entirely speculative - retrospective on the life and times of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (portrayed here by the astonishingly effective Tom Hulce). Abraham portrays the duplicitous, envious and malevolent Antonio Salieri, the court composer to Emperor Joseph II of Austria (Jeffery Jones). He is talented, up to point, and settled in his politically influential and wea”
