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 68 comments (36 from Metacritic, 30 from Reddit, 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 music used was judged well for the most part in not being especially distracting or overpowering (i.e. loud), certainly in the first half of the film. It was fairly understated, somewhat subtle towards the start”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
It plays better than it reviews — the watch lands harder than the write-ups suggest.
“Eddie The Eagle turns a long-running joke of British sport into a crowd-pleasing story of inspiration. It’s a solid gold winner.”
Olly Richards, Empire · 80
“From niche subject matter, Fletcher's crafted a movie that's both universal but also unashamedly, gloriously British. Very funny, genuinely moving and endlessly good-natured.”
Rosie Fletcher, Total Film · 80
“This gentle comedy is more interested in doing justice to the spirit of his achievement and the style of late-'80s comedy than the details of his life, but the resulting confection is sweet and simple.”
Russ Fischer, The Playlist · 75
“The movie version of his life, fittingly, is a massive vat of hot cocoa with a mountain of whipped cream on top — sweet and warm and made with a mission to satisfy everyone who takes a sip.”
Joe McGovern, Entertainment Weekly · 75
“Eddie the Eagle leaves viewers buoyed by satisfactions unique to classic come-from-behind stories. Even when it’s as ungainly and cravenly audience-pleasing as its protagonist, it soars.”
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post · 75

“Was it a beat by beat sports movie? Yeah. Was it cliche and predictable as hell? Of course. Did I still love watching every minute of it? Absolutely! I seriously recommend this movie. It's been said numerous times so far but Egerton is charming as hell and there's no doubt in my mind he'll be a household name within the next 5 years. Jackman basically played the same character as he did in Real Steel but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. All in all I loved this and it is definitely one of my ”

“A nice feel-good movie if nothing else. Taron Egerton is great though and I hope he's one of the next big name actors.”

“> Keep dreaming brings nothing, need to go out and try to make it happen! The posters, teasers did not impress me at all. The thought the film going to be a flop. Surprisingly the film was much better than I anticipation. This is a biographical-sport film and very inspiring. The story of a British boy in the early 70s who dreamt to be an Olympian, but the problem is he has not found his sports. By the time in his 20s, he finally finds his interest and gives his best to make his long pending w”
