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 15 comments (12 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) — 4 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — 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.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“But King Kong is more than a technical achievement. It is also a curiously touching fable in which the beast is seen, not as a monster of destruction, but as a creature that in its own way wants to do the right thing.”
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times · 100
“King Kong, as spectacular a bolt of celluloid as has thrilled audiences in a couple of sophisticated seasons, is the product of a number of vivid imaginations...We've got to admit that there's a certain tenseness about King Kong which defies you to glance away from the screen before the entire tale is told. It fascinates, to be sure.”
Irene Thirer, New York Daily News · 100
“None of the humans not even scream queen Wray can compete with Kong. But the film remains a perfect star vehicle. It prepares for its hero's entrance with hints of mystery, violence, eroticism and fantasy, then cuts loose with all the action, adventure.”
Kim Newman, Empire · 100
“The ultimate monster movie and one of the grandest and most beloved adventure films ever made, KING KONG is a film that has given us one of the most enduring icons of American popular culture--a massively destructive but curiously sympathetic giant gorilla whose rampage through New York City suggests, on a psychological level, the re-emergence of repressed desire.”

“Granddaddy of beast-on-the-loose movies.”
Steve Daly, Entertainment Weekly · 100

“The best of the remakes produced so far, second only to the original of '33.\ Kong and the other Island's creatures are detailed in their alternate evolution and the work behind each is enormous.\ The colonial atmosphere and mentality of the era are also well represented and are very reminiscent of Cooper's original.\ Jack Black has given the best of himself in the film, skis and interested only in profit is an interesting and multifaceted character with motivations that are more or less shar”
