how much it moved you
Two separate readings, not parts of the score β 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 29 comments (28 from Metacritic, 1 from TMDB reviews) β 8 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 8 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.

βIt has the most exquisite ending I've ever seen. A soft and generous compliment to the cab ride moment where we see the deep empathetic sadness of two people somewhere they never dreamed they would be. I found it really cathartic andβ

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
It reviews better than it plays β admired more than it is enjoyed.
βThis is one of the most wildly romantic movies in ages.β

βSummer sequelitis is upon us, but the season is unlikely to bring anything more remarkable than Richard Linklater's sweet, smart, and deeply romantic Before Sunset.β
J. Hoberman, Village Voice Β· 100
βYep, this movie is basically a yakfest, but an incredibly fluid and involving one, and if you have any kind of affinity for either of the characters, you’re bound to find the picture a kind of miracle.β
Glenn Kenny, Premiere Β· 100
βThe new film, which unfolds in real time over the course of 80 minutes, is a deeper, darker, altogether more memorable experience. It doesn't extend the characters so much as fulfill them.β
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly Β· 100
βThis is a romance with minimal physical contact and sex--and that's part of what makes it work so well as a love story.β

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.

βIt's been almost a decade since "Jesse" (Ethan Hawke) met "Celine" (Julie Delpy) on that Austrian train and now he is a successful author on a book tour and visiting Paris. Guess who walks into the store seeking a signed copy? Did he turn up in Vienna six months after their last meeting like they agreed? Did she? That's the basis for their rekindling of the rapport that started back then, but after their initially enthusiastic welcoming of the other is that spark still going to be there? Like laβ
