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 57 comments (45 from Metacritic, 12 from TMDB reviews) — 16 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 16 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.
“Iron Man 3 is an ominously exciting, shoot-the-works comic-book spectacular.”
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly · 91
“A madly creative, darkly comical, and fiendishly self-aware actioner with muscle to spare.”
Chris Cabin, Slant Magazine · 88
“Thanks to Downey’s genius, Iron Man 3 is equally terrific, whether Tony’s fending off an army of villains or bantering with a kid in a shed on a cold, snowy night.”
Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times · 88
“Downey, Jr. remains a rightfully cherished smartass figure, having as much a ball with Black’s one-liners as he had in “KKBB,” and he sells Tony’s newfound post-traumatic vulnerability more credibly than the film does.”
William Goss, Film.com · 83
“Iron Man 3 is smart, funny and spectacular.”
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian · 80

“There can be many reasons why the original director of a franchise may decide not to return for a sequel, though they all usually have in common that they're very Hollywood-politically-correct. So exactly why Jon Favreau decided not to helm the third instalment of what is, for all intents and purposes, 'his baby' Iron Man, I can't be sure. But I can tell you one thing: something definitely changed. Everything about IM3 feels different from its predecessors. The atmosphere is darker, which is ”
