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 27 comments (23 from Metacritic, 4 from TMDB reviews) β 4 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence β the shape below rests on 4 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.

βStargate is a clever adventure that should find its audience.β
Caryn James, The New York Times Β· 70
βStargate is a blast from the past in many ways, but it imaginatively employs the latest special effects technology to give audiences new thrills. [24 Oct 1994]β
David Hunter, The Hollywood Reporter Β· 70
βIt works not because ridiculousness is concealed, but because ridiculousness on this scale becomes something else. Don't let anyone tell you that Stargate, lifeless script and all, isn't clunky fun, proudly trembling on the brink of classic camp. [28 Oct 1994, p.48]β
Jay Carr, Boston Globe Β· 63
βThe movie devolves into a kind of high-tech Flash Gordon, with Ra as a cross- dressed Ming and Russell and Spader as the heroes required to chase big lugs with ray-guns around the inside of a pyramid. Things get pretty brainless before it's over, although Russell does get to deliver a great send-off line. [28 Oct 1994, p.5]β
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer Β· 63
βStargate is peppered with numerous minor faults, some of which - although not all - are easily forgiven. It's the bigger plot problems and lackluster climax which are more difficult to excuse.β
James Berardinelli, ReelViews Β· 50

βI've seen this movie a couple of times over the years and while it's entertaining enough, there was always something holding it back. It's got some creativity, a decent cast with Kurt Russell and James Spader and the premise of a portal to another part of the universe is interesting (and more than enough to spawn a couple DTV movies and a couple TV series), but can't really put my finger on why. **3.25/5**β

βOne of my favorite movies of all time! Watched it again recently and there are still things I missed, wow. Loved it, I didn't realize the series changed quite a few important details but I guess that's okay. Great story, love the tie in with Ancient Egypt only thing that could have given this a 10 was more character depth or love story but the sci-fi part was the focus here which was more than adaquate. Need more movies like this! When is Nephilim coming ...β
