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 28 comments (25 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) β 3 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 3 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 β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βIf I ran the circus, the gang that made the sturdy, witty, inventively animated Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who! would get first dibs on any future movie productions of the Theodor Seuss Geisel canon.β

βStays true to the spirit and characters of the book while embellishing it to overflowing.β

βI don't wish to give offense here, but it certainly doesn't hurt that Mary Lou is voiced by that famously small bundle of energy Isla Fisher. (She's 5-foot-2.)β

βFinally! For the first time, Hollywood has made a whimsical, witty, feature-length version of Dr. Seuss that's neither overblown nor smutty nor emotionally hollow.β
Lawrence Toppman, Charlotte Observer Β· 88
βThe look of the story is an undeniable treat, and the message it weaves is both funny and sweet. Horton Hears a Who! is razzle-dazzling and artful, and it builds on Seuss' words by the clever cart-full.β

βSo far, everybody's favourite Dr Seuss adaptation of a movie. Before there was Illumination, I am glad that Blue Sky was Audrey Geisel's first choice to make a movie of her husbands story. Like the style of Blue Sky, they gave voice roles to actors who barely had a voice role, such as Jim Carrey portraying Horton who was not just having an adventure of his own, he had a class of animals. He discovers a speck of dust on a flower where it is Whoville (the best was that was an urban place inside β

βIt's easily one of the best Blue Sky movies along with Ice Age and Rio R.I.P. Blue Sky Studiosβ
