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 22 comments (21 from Metacritic, 1 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.

βas it moves on, Edward and Carter start to become friends as they are put together in hospital next to each other and they slowly start to communicate with each other. It is quite sad in one sense and heart warming and uplifting in another. Its nice that the two characters open up about their different backgrounds and families and are able to share as much as they do, being so different as the two of them are in one way but having been brought together by their disease.β

Published reviews, not felt experience β a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
βActors tell us that dying is easy, comedy is hard. But comedies about dying are hardest of all.β
Kyle Smith, New York Post Β· 88
βThe movie's sincerity helps it get over some of the most difficult hurdles and the feeling after leaving theater is one of having experienced something worthwhile albeit unremarkable.β
James Berardinelli, ReelViews Β· 75
βThe leads, who were born six weeks apart in 1937, have remarkable hare-and-tortoise chemistry.β
Lawrence Toppman, Charlotte Observer Β· 75
βThere are certainly worse ways to spend the holiday season than in the company of two charming old actors, being reminded that human companionship makes life worth living, even as it makes dying a little tougher.β
Noel Murray, The A.V. Club Β· 67
βDespite some emotional dips and a see-it-to-believe-it load of schmaltz at the end, The Bucket List is mostly a joy ride with good company, and the actors obviously were having a high time on their traveling boondoggle.β
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News Β· 63

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.

βYou measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you. Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman play two terminally ill men who check out of their cancer ward and head off on a road trip to complete their Bucket List of things to do before they die. Every once in a while a film comes along with such simplicity of warmth it rises above any charge of clichΓ©s and sugar coated sappiness. The Bucket List is one such film. Its message is simple, its filming style equally so. It's performed wβ
