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 26 comments (21 from Metacritic, 5 from TMDB reviews) — 7 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 7 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.

“The ending particularly dragged”
r96sk · TMDB reviews ↗
“At the start of the movie, closely surveying the trashed, chaotic living room followed by a totally random animal walking out felt like an homage to the "The Hangover" franchise.”

“I was finding this sequel fairly boring and uninteresting”

“the first act of this movie is mostly a setup involving a lot of low-brow scenes and too-easy jokes between the main characters - albeit with a few laugh-out-loud moments”

“it settles in to a more consistent story line by the second act”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“What follows is another slapstick dose of hard-R ridiculosity with a soft-nougat center, but it also passes the Bechdel test maybe better than any other film this year, and its older generation of stars are too smart not to go to town on their stock roles.”
Leah Greenblatt, Entertainment Weekly · 83
“A movie can be unreasonably formulaic and still be reasonably diverting, and A Bad Moms Christmas is the proof.”
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune · 63
“One of those plot-by-numbers sit-com movies that tries hard (perhaps too hard) to reproduce the elements that made the earlier film successful.”
James Berardinelli, ReelViews · 63
“The new film, while just okay enough to get by, takes a step back from the audacity of “Bad Moms” to something more cautiously conventional.”
Owen Gleiberman, Variety · 60
“One’s enjoyment all depends on what they are expecting to get out of a studio comedy sequel; if you desire something light, occasionally surprising, and ultimately unchallenging, then A Bad Mom’s Christmas is for you.”
Murphy Kenefick, The Film Stage · 58

“I might be a man but let me tell you this was one of the funniest movies I have seen this year I laughed out loud more than once and got the Christmas spirit the rest of the time the 3 beautiful women were just a joy to watch and the whole celebration of family and hilarious comedy mixed is such a Christmas treat if your looking for some Christmas fun and full of lol moments I totally can recommend this one”

“I'm not much for American comedies, and while the first _Bad Moms_ was a cut above the usual sort of thing on offering from that sector, I didn't love it, and _A Bad Moms Christmas_ is little more than a seasonal themed, watered down version of the first one, complete with the half-baked version of the main characters relearning their "lessons" from the original. I've suffered far worse than _A Bad Moms Christmas_, to be sure, but I think it would be better if they had just left it at one movie.”

“I haven’t seen the original bad moms movie. Oddly enough, I decided to watch this one because Christine Baranski is in it. I like her in The Good Fight and always look forward to when her character laughs. There are a lot of funny moments here, and also some cringeworthy ones, such as one mother having absolutely no boundaries in shoehorning herself into her daughter’s life, or ribald scenes like the dreaded ball-waxing sequence.
