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 48 comments (47 from Metacritic, 1 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.

“But then, all the sudden, Bradley Cooper goes "let me just lower the dose" OMG GENIUS AND NOW HE TAKES IT WITH NO CONSEQUENCES. The movies message is that its worth taking the drugs in the short term because in the end you can become senator and get your girlfriend back after you cheat on her multiple times and lie to her constantly. If you cheat and completely change who you are and everything that you do you will become super successful and everyone will love you.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Add it all up, including the nifty twist at the end, and what we have here is a fun Hollywood flick with a good head on its shoulders.”
Rick Groen, The Globe and Mail (Toronto) · 88
“For two hours it's a fun head trip.”
Steve Persall, Tampa Bay Times · 83
“In Limitless, a potently fanciful and fun thriller about a drug that turns you into a genius, Cooper proves a cock-of-the-walk movie star.”
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly · 83
“Some of its conceits may not hold up under intense scrutiny, but, generally speaking, it's a good time at the movies.”
Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic · 80
“Some might call this movie a step backward after Burger's previous feature, the painfully honest Iraq war drama "The Lucky Ones," but as a stylish intrigue it's hard to beat.”
J.R. Jones, Chicago Reader · 80

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.

“A reframing of what life has to offer. While the premise of a drug induced hyper competency seems like it should be the wrong type of inspiration, I couldn't help but feel inspired as I watched Eddie Moira (Bradley Cooper) transform his life. The funny thing about the movie is that a lot of what Eddie did to improve his life could have been done without NZT which hyper stimulated his brain to accomplish the impossible. Many of the things he did to improve his life such as cleaning his apar”
