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 25 comments (21 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.

βwhat stops this film from being a 10 for me is the ending, it's cut short from where the book ends. In the book they find Misy's body in real life showing what Mack saw has merit, it was such a let down after a really good movie that made me cryβ

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βThe Shack is a well-acted and sometimes moving but far too often slow-paced and unconvincing spiritual journey.β
Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times Β· 50
βThe strangest thing about The Shack, and the reason itβs finally a so-so movie, is that all the rage and terror and dark-side vengeance that Mack has to learn to transcend is something weβre told about, but we never actually see him mired in it.β
Owen Gleiberman, Variety Β· 50
βA bit more editing to remove some of the airiness would have made for a better film.β
Neil Genzlinger, The New York Times Β· 50
βThe Shack isnβt quite as bad as expectations might lead you to believe, but itβs not divine, either.β
Will Ashton, We Got This Covered Β· 50
βThough the dialogue is written with all the finesse of a self-help book, and the visuals are a garish technicolor explosion, there are some nuggets of wisdom that do resonate, regardless of personal belief.β
Katie Walsh, Chicago Tribune Β· 50

βI really enjoyed this movie 10/10. I feel like if youβre on a journey walking with God or yearning for a deeper relationship with him , this movie might just push that along further. I was crying a ridiculous amount and was really healing with this movie as well. I would definitely recommend this movie.β

βThis movie was beautiful. I laughed, I cried. For all of you out there who either believe in God or question his existence please watch this movie. It will definitely renew your faithβ

βAs a person who doesn't believe in any sort of gods, somehow, I watched this movie. And I have to say that I almost regretted immediately the wasted time. But not fully, and here is why. Disclaimer: I haven't read the novel; whatever I say pertains only to the movie. Please, do not refer to the book. This is not a review of the novel. From the perspective of artistic value, the movie is pointless for a non-religious person. The main point of the whole movie can be described as: "Youβ

Radha Mitchell is on hand as the wife while Graham Greene shows up in the last act. Based on the novel from ten years earlier, "The Shack" (2017) is a drama/fantasy in the mold of the heralded βField of Dreams,β just focused on struggling with the LORD (which is what βIsraelβ means in the Hebrew).
