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 33 comments (30 from Metacritic, 3 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.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Smart, funny and often viciously cruel, this is a romantic comedy for people who are too old to believe in fairyales but wise enough to accept a happy ending when that's what life gives them.”
Ann Hornaday, Baltimore Sun · 100
“A brash romantic comedy that has a serious purpose at its core.”
Gene Siskel, Chicago Tribune · 100
“In As Good as It Gets, his (Brooks) mastery of the nuances of language and emotion has turned the most unlikely material into the best and funniest romantic comedy of the year.”
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times · 90
“What Brooks manages to do with them as they struggle mightily to connect with one another is funny, painful, beautiful, and basically truthful--a triumph for everyone involved.”
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader · 90
“Nicholson is near-perfect as he slowly allows callous cruelty to give way to vulnerability in one of the most original, idiosynchratic roles of the year.”
Graham Verdon, TNT RoughCut · 90

Couldn't be made today for multiple reasons, primarily some of the homophobic and racial language, but the quality is still there and I think it adds even more complexity to Jack Nicolson's character.

“When I first saw this movie I thought it was going to be a funny movie. It's actually a serious drama movie. I still liked it but he's a prick in this movie.”
