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 11 comments (8 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) — 2 of them described how it moves.
Thin evidence — the shape below rests on 2 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.

“My boyfriend fell asleep after approx. 20 mins.”

“A atmosfera de medo criada aqui, principalmente nos momentos antecedentes ao ataque, é quase palpável de tão presente. Sentimos medo por eles mesmo sem conhecê-los. O ataque é cruel e mostra uma pintura quase real do que de fato é a guerra”

Published reviews, not felt experience — a different question from the one above, and never mixed into the FlickFeel score.
“This is the director’s most vivid, most emotional and humane film, and perhaps his best.”
Tom Huddleston, Time Out London · 100
“Banned in France for 18 years, this masterpiece still packs a wallop, though nothing in it is as simple as it may first appear; audiences are still arguing about the final sequence, which has been characterized as everything from a sentimental cop-out to the ultimate cynical twist.”
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader · 100
“Paths of Glory was the film by which Stanley Kubrick entered the ranks of great directors, never to leave them.”
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times · 100
“It is arguably the best film about the first world war, and still has a reasonable claim to being Stanley Kubrick's best film.”
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian · 100
“One of the greatest war films ever made.”
David Mermelstein, Wall Street Journal · 100

“Directed by a then-debutant Stanley Kubrick, this war drama based on real events was one of the first to break with convention, functioning more as an anti-war statement, with an outstanding performance by Kirk Douglas.”

“It's Kubrick. It is always well-acted and directed. It's an enjoyable movie, but I don't think it matches the hype behind it. It feels almost too abrupt to me, and could have been a bit longer to flesh things out.”

“Madness and Patsies Crash Together In Kubrick's Explosive Thunderbolt. Stanley Kubrick's Paths of Glory is holding up rather well these days, in fact it's as pertinent and relevant as ever. It's 1916 and the French and German armies are in opposing mud trenches, when the French are ordered to undertake a suicidal assault on a German held hill, many of the soldiers are quick to realise it's an impossible order to see through to its conclusion and retreat, something which brings charges of c”

“"Col. Dax" (Kirk Dougas) is cajoled by "Gen. Broulard" (Adolphe Menjou) into taking his Great War weary regiment on one last mission in occupied France. Frankly, it's little better than a suicide one, but his operational commander "Gen. Mireau" (George Macready) is determined at all costs that they succeed. Let battle commence! Only the French soldiers quickly realise that they are facing a well armed, immovable, German opponent and are either killed or driven back. Desperate to motivate his men”

“**A short and objective film, with a clear and still relevant message, as well as a huge performance by Kirk Douglas.** There are several films about World War I, but it is far from being seen by the public as one of the best. In fact, it seems to me a little forgotten today. It is, however, timely and current in its pacifist message in which the greatest absurdity of war is emphasized in a partially true story, in which a group of three French soldiers is shot by cowardice after joining an i”
