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 46 comments (29 from Metacritic, 16 from Reddit, 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.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
It reviews better than it plays — admired more than it is enjoyed.
“Probably the most breathtakingly gorgeous film of the year, dizzy with a nose-against-the-glass romantic spirit that has been missing from the cinema forever.”
A.O. Scott, The New York Times · 100
“A feast for the eyes and succor for the soul.”
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer · 100
“Wong weaves a spell that no other director could create.”
Andy Klein, Dallas Observer · 100
“Rapturously elegant and deeply sexy in a deliciously restrained way. One of the most romantic movies I have ever seen, right up there with "Brief Encounter"and "Casablanca."”
Jonathan Foreman, New York Post · 100
“Excites us with words not spoken, passions not played out. A mood story more than a love story, it's all about sustaining a state of exquisite melancholy in the face of desire.”
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal · 100

“I was watching Before Sunrise one night and my old roommate (and one of my best friends) was heading out the door for the night. I explained to him the plot of Before Sunrise and mentioned it was a comfort movie of mine. He said “oh well if you like this, you’ll absolutely like In the Mood for Love. Total comfort movie, amazing romance.” I had nothing to do and it was also on MAX so why not? After finishing the movie and wiping away all the tears, I realized one of my oldest friends and I ”

“starting from the initial scene between Mrs. Chan and Mr. Chow. From fleeting glances to subtle physical touches between them, the plot unfolds early in the film when it becomes clear that the lovers' partners are the ones hidden away”
