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 20 comments (17 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) β 5 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 5 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.

βUp until the ending I was actually nonplussed about it, neither liking or disliking it, but the conclusion is so uninteresting and lame that I just couldn't wait for 'The End' to appear.β

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βKid II is an enlightening experience. It teaches you a little about courage, mercy, and the zen of movie-cycle maintenance.β
Rita Kempley, Washington Post Β· 75
βThe plotline is classic Western morality-play stuff, with the goodies and baddies clearly delineated, but the set pieces are well constructed, and the whole thing is beautifully staged and shot.β

βThere are scattered pleasures throughout the film due to its two lead performances, which are the equal of the work done in the original. It's just that with a few exceptions, the characters Miyagi and Daniel are forced into conflict with aren't worthy of their time.β

βEven as sequels go in this era of movie mega-series, The Karate Kid Part II peters out faster than most.β
Vincent Canby, The New York Times Β· 60
βMacchio, for his part, is an obviously intelligent actor with terrific instincts. Still, this movie leaves a bit to be desired: much of the movie seems recycled, and there is precious little subtlety in the villains' characterizations. The film is also about 15 minutes too long, with far too many convenient plot devices.β

β**A worthy continuation.** After the great success of the first film, it was quite predictable that another film would be made that would continue the story. This film picks up right where the first left off, and follows in the footsteps of Daniel and his master, Miyagi, on a journey to southern Japan, the latter's homeland, to see his dying father and settle a score with a man he swore to kill. Him if he ever set foot on Japanese soil again. As in the first film, we again have Ralph Macchβ

βAt least they had the sense not to let the grass (or Bonsai) grow between the first outing and this sequel for "Danny" (Ralph Macchio) and his Yoda-esque mentor "Miyagi" (Pat Morita). Now, they have to go to Okinawa when the older gent gets a message about his father and his childhood love. Once there, though, they begin to appreciate that local property developer "Sato" (Danny Kamekona) - once the best friend of our elderly ninja, now has an axe to grind. Not only that, but he is using his skilβ
