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 22 comments (15 from Reddit, 7 from Metacritic) β 4 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β 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.

βBut it takes forever, with flashbacks and voiceovers introducing flashbacks, to set the stage and introduce Mel Gibson as a misogynist Chicago ad man, then arrange for him to hear womenβs thoughts.β

βThis film even deals with the topic of suicide in a very profound and tear jerking way. I had to pause the film so as not to break out in tears... and I'm not the type to cry at films muchβ

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βA frequently hilarious exercise in one sex desperately trying to figure out the other.β
Chris Kaltenbach, Baltimore Sun Β· 88
βDelivers on the promise of its playful premise, thanks to some sly gender role reversals and Gibson's willingness to play along.β
Marc Caro, Chicago Tribune Β· 75
βA merry romantic comedy in the screwball tradition.β
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News Β· 75
βIf the movie is imperfect, it's not boring and is often very funny, as in a solo dance that Nick does in his apartment, to Frank Sinatra singing "I Won't Dance."β
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times Β· 75
βGibson, in a disarmingly nimble, fast break performance, makes Nick's new hyperempathy look like the essence of virile panache.β

βThe only quote I remember from this movie is from a dog: "Monsieur, I need to poop!" Otherwise I remember it being just OK. I think we'd rented it because my family liked Helen Hunt and Mel Gibson. I couldn't help but think a romcom was an odd genre for Gibson, given the movies we'd seen him in had all been action or drama.β

βExcellent written script that is more grounded than most movies pushing a message these days. This is a classic film that does it the right way with a great story and actors.β
