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 7 comments (6 from Metacritic, 1 from TMDB reviews) β 1 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 1 comment. 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 β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βLook Who's Talking is full of good feeling, and director Amy Heckerling finds a light touch for her lightweight material.β
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times Β· 75
βThanks to the ingenious voiceover, however, Look Who's Talking is a genial, entertaining film.β

βHeckerling's central hokum is definitely silly, based on the notion that Mikey (and all babies, in fact) has somewhat adult, slightly cynical thoughts on everything that goes on around him, from conception to end credits -- and that these thoughts and embryonic wisecracks and creative interpretations are heard only by the audience via the aptly cast voice of overgrown kid Willis.β

βThe movie but, rather surprisingly, given the gimmicky premise, it's not gag-me-with-a-pacifier cute nearly as often as it is genuinely charming. [13 Oct 1989, p.12]β
Chris Willman, Los Angeles Times Β· 70
βSassy but never cynical, Mikey is first seen, through some cunningly simple special effects, as a kind of hot-rodding sperm cruising up the Fallopian tube to the tune of the Beach Boys' I Get Around. [20 Nov 1989, p.98]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.

βA movie that could only have been made in the 80's that manages to ring a decent amount of humour from what is essentially one joke.β

βWhy a comedy about a baby expressing itself through thoughts was the favorite of a few in the late 1980s is an Easter Island enigma. It's not that it's terrible, it has one or two funny moments, although it brought to the table John Travolta's dubious taste for movies. Don't bother watching the sequels, unless you have masochistic tendencies.β

βThis movie was made during a better time, and is on a shortlist of great movies that you can enjoy with kids as they transition to being teens, without pandering to either parents or kids.β

β**One of the most iconic romantic comedies of the decade.** What if a baby, still inside the mother's womb, could tell us what he thinks? The premise of this film is that, and it gives rise to one of the most outstanding romantic comedies of the 80's (and this is no small thing, considering the amount of romantic comedies that appeared in the 80's and 90's) and gave rise, thanks to a considerable critical and commercial success, to another two sequels, renewing John Travolta's career and makiβ
