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 21 comments (20 from Metacritic, 1 from TMDB reviews) — 2 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 2 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.

“Zathura is a rarity: a stellar fantasy that faces down childhood anxieties with feet-on-the-ground maturity.”
Scott Brown, Entertainment Weekly · 91
“The result is a glorious low-tech pleasure that may be the most lyrical, phantasmagoric boys' adventure story since Joe Dante's Explorers.”

“A wild buckle-up-and-blast-off adventure that plunges every corner of kids' favorite subject.”
Peter Debruge, Miami Herald · 88

M. E. Russell, Portland Oregonian · 83
“Favreau keeps the picture throttling forward with a carefree charm.”
Marjorie Baumgarten, Austin Chronicle · 78
