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 48 comments (46 from Metacritic, 2 from TMDB reviews) β 13 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β 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.

βThis shift adds depth but also slows the pacing at times, making it feel like two different movies competing for attention.β

βthe only down point was the pacing and mood. This movie is an action thriller at heart that uses more of a slow-burn stylistic approach that sometimes works against what makes that genre work.β

β[Martin Campbell's] a master at rejuvenating tired warhorses, and he pulls it off again with this one.β
John Hartl, The Seattle Times Β· 75
βCampbell keeps the action cooking and the suspense on a high burner in this compulsively watchable conspiracy thriller, while The Foreigner proves again is that Chan is the Man β now and forever.β
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone Β· 75
βThe movie also allows Chan to demonstrate that he can act. In between setting traps, blowing things up and rendering people unconscious, Chan plays grief in The Foreigner, and his face contains all the sadness of the world.β
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle Β· 75
βThe intrigue is high and the action is furious, but a sort of meta subplot is also at work: Sextagenerian action-film hero Chan against onetime 007er Brosnan.β
Brad Wheeler, The Globe and Mail (Toronto) Β· 75
βThe Foreigner is a good, lean cut of meatβin other words, a typical Martin Campbell movie, expeditious and cold-blooded in its cross-cut, cloak-and-dagger plotting and violence.β
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky, The A.V. Club Β· 75

βJackie Chan just keeps fuckin' bringing it doesn't he? The serious tone of _The Foreigner_ fits him well, but the role he plays seems oddly shoehorned in. I understand that the movie is in actual fact based on a novel called _The Chinaman_, which I assume unfolds more or less as the film does. But the Troubles-themed Political Drama makes up most of the runtime in _The Foreigner_, and the Action/Revenge Thriller element seems almost like at some point in pre-production the crew went "Holy shiβ
