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 (14 from Metacritic, 1 from TMDB reviews) — 1 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 1 comment. 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.

“The ending also was little confused where Ellen decided to return to the group home for recovery just after she had a dream about her death!! Actually it must be more detailed and convinced.”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“Throughout the film, Noxon refuses to offer up easy answers and feel-good conclusions to Ellen’s journey, even when it ratchets up into a literally overheated final discovery.”
Kate Erbland, IndieWire · 91
“Noxon, who also wrote the screenplay, manages to explore dark and complex issues while frequently leavening them with unexpected moments of humor.”
Boyd van Hoeij, The Hollywood Reporter · 80
“The film itself is an admirable and empathetic work that does not romanticize anorexia or the young woman being ground into nothingness by the disease, as some have feared.”
Melanie McFarland, Salon · 80
“One of the film’s great qualities is its casualness and willingness to be simply human and to not let sociological politics dominate.”
Chuck Bowen, Slant Magazine · 75
“For young people suffering, the movie offers both hope and clarity; for more experienced viewers, it may come off a little too much like "Girl, Interrupted" through a Lifetime lens.”
Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly · 75

“Esse filme é quase como um tutorial, tem muitos truques e dicas para te fazer piorar, eu assisto toda vez que quero me afundar de novo. Minha meta é ser igual a Ellie, controlada e só o osso.”

“The subject of eating disorders is approached with all seriousness, without exaggeration or sentimentality, so that it seems almost documented. It is the most that could be appreciated, and especially the performances.”

“To the Bone is a disappointing story that barely scratches the surface of an extremely serious subject, and worse, features painfully simplistic performances that give neither focus, depth, nor graveness to a story that desperately needed it. The moment its director accepted that Lily Collins would have the same expressionless face throughout the film, is when you know that her choice of leading actress was a complete failure. And when you lead character is that flat. The rest will suffer from ”

“**To whom 'Bon Appetit' is a sin!** Another writer, producer turned director. It was her first feature film and she was not bad. The Netflix producing lots of formats like shows, stand-ups, but I'm more interested in in films which they haven't tapped that greatly, yet.
