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 287 comments (239 from Reddit, 47 from Metacritic, 1 from TMDB reviews) — 86 of them described how it moves.
➖ steady — Holds one level all the way. Hard going most of the way through. Very little of it ever resolves. Marked above the line: 2 moments that made people jump, 2 that landed as a blow, 1 that gave people chills.

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Gerald’s Game is a symphony of suspense and scares, spiked with just the right amount of gruesome gore.”
Kristy Puchko, The Playlist · 100
“Taken strictly on its own terms, the film adaptation is an arrestingly and sometimes excruciatingly suspenseful psychological thriller lightly garnished with horror-movie flourishes...and driven by a compelling lead performance that is entirely worthy of a description too often misapplied to lesser work: tour de force.”
Joe Leydon, Variety · 90
“Gerald’s Game is a set of tightly wound gears that cranks out dread. Carla Gugino and Bruce Greenwood are as superb as they have ever been.”
William Bibbiani, IGN · 89
“Gugino and Greenwood deliver first-rate performances enriched by their characters’ ambiguous qualities.”
Eric Kohn, IndieWire · 83
“Perhaps because he’s had a couple of decades to think about it, Flanagan’s vision for the film is assured, full of intimate closeups that allow Gugino’s multi-layered performance to shine.”
Katie Rife, The A.V. Club · 83

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.
