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 285 comments (242 from Reddit, 40 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) — 50 of them described how it moves.
💀 flatline — One note, start to finish. Hard going most of the way through. It tightens hardest in the first half. Marked above the line: 2 that gave people chills, 1 that got a real laugh.

“Scar's delivery of "long live the king" wasn't nearly as sinister or soul crushing as it was in the animated film. In this movie he just blurted it out, and it felt flat.”

“There's no emotions conveyed and it really hurts what was arguably one of the biggest moments in Disney movies.”

“The new song “Spirit” really didn’t fit, both in terms of sound and placement in the movie.”
JuniorCaptain · Reddit ↗
“Within MINUTES of Nala and Simba's reunion. I couldn't take the "why can't he be the king I know he is" line or Timon's mourning their lost friendship seriously because they barely started interacting after years of separation.”
“I legitimately laughed out loud when Timon began singing Be Our Guest.”

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.
“Pure, eye-popping pleasure.”
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News · 100
“A hugely entertaining blend of music, fun and eye-popping thrills, though it doesn't lack for heart.”
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone · 100
“A scrumptiously delightful moviegoing experience.”
Duane Byrge, The Hollywood Reporter · 100
“A mystical, thrilling and breathtaking coming-of-age movie. [14 June 1994]”
Dolores Barclay, The Associated Press · 100
“This is an instant classic, primal and immediate in its depiction of the death of a parent, firmly anchored in the Disney style while extending its boundaries with arresting new perspectives and a tough-mindedness simply not possible to its most obvious ancestors, Bambi and The Jungle Book. [24 June 1994, p.47]”
Jay Carr, Boston Globe · 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.
