     I find it a bit challenging to think of it as a singular school considering that it encompasses both Christian philosophers like Kierkegaard and atheist philosophers like Sartre who take its premises in very different directions.

Generally positive, although PiT is right that it's more a loose umbrella of philosophical tendencies than a single coherent position. I myself am especially drawn to Camus, who's typically lumped in with the existentialists even though he himself eschewed the label.
