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 36 comments (32 from Metacritic, 4 from TMDB reviews) — 6 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 6 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.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“You may never have thought you needed or even wanted a sequel to “The Croods,” but you may find it a pleasant surprise in a year where most of the surprises have been anything but.”
Alonso Duralde, TheWrap · 78
“The Croods: A New Age has some of the derivative limitations of the first film — the faint whiff of riding “Ice Age’s” coattails. But the players make their slapsticking, pratfalling, punking and pranking characters breathe, live, love and care.”
Roger Moore, Movie Nation · 75
“So there’s a lot going on here, and director Joel Crawford and his teams efficiently keep the story moving along. There’s a wonderful “Flintstones” versus “Jetsons” vibe, the characters are, as usual, appealing.”
G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle · 75
“The film is overstuffed with comedy material, though. There’s a time-period-appropriate gag for everything — the TV is just a hole in the wall that they watch birds through — and the jokes are nonstop. The best moments of animated films are often the most serene.”
Johnny Oleksinski, New York Post · 75
“More fun are the imaginative prehistoric beasts, from land-sharks to six-eyed spider-wolves to a tribe of “punch monkeys” that has developed a language that consists entirely of, well, punches and slaps. This was one of the strengths of the first picture, too: You sensed that the filmmakers had a blast inventing crazy new creatures for this primeval fantasy land.”
Bilge Ebiri, New York Magazine (Vulture) · 70

“<em>'The Croods: A New Age'</em> makes for a good sequel. I didn't mind the original from 2013 (that long ago, eh?), I found it passable but did have to watch a recap video before watching this entry as I remembered absolutely nothing; aside from the first few scenes. I guess that's to be expected given the time gap, albeit I don't think I watched the first film until around 2019. This one offers up enough entertainment, it does feature a type of story that is rather predictable but I thin”

“68/100 Led by Guy, the Croods journey to find Tomorrow. What they find is a paradise created by the Betterman's, a family who considers themselves more advanced than the Croods and who helped raise Guy when he was a child. The social dynamics, typical family issues, the choices between fear and adventure, budding love among the teenagers, and punch monkeys all come together to create a hysterical series of events that move along very quickly and never fail to entertain. The characterizations ”
