Casino Royale

43Leave it.

The poker is craft. The lesson they want is a hardening. Adults, and do not applaud the hardening.

Take controlThis scores 43. Casino Royale cannot be blocked by name on this shelf. The lock is the phone. Block it

The review

This is the Bond film that remembers a job is a series of choices with bodies attached. The card game is wonderful craft: reading a face, managing a sum, staying when you are losing. That part could teach a teenager something about nerve.

Then the education is completed by a woman's death, so the brand can have its armor back. Do not call that grown-up. Call it the old machine restarting. Watch the table if you watch it. Refuse the moral they wrote on her grave.

The glance

Household and Piety and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Skyfall

54 instead of 43

Skyfall is still a action film, and it scores 54 instead of 43. What you gain is republic: A public hearing.

The eight

7
Industry
He watches the table. The work of the spy, for once, is attention.
3
Household
He begins to love a woman. The plot needs her dead more than it needs the love.
2
Piety
No creed. Queen and country are a letterhead.
6
Courage
He stays in a game that will ruin him if he flinches.
3
Republic
Governments are accounts. The public is offscreen.
4
Temperance
The violence is mean and not lingered on as a joke. It is still the solution.
6
Truth
The film admits he is a blunt instrument, and that someone is trying to make him blunter.
3
Stewardship
What they leave him is a man who will not trust the next woman.

Django Unchained

43Leave it.

The marriage is the just cause. The carnival of revenge is the pleasure. Adults, and grudging.

The review

A man goes back for his wife. That sentence could have carried a severe film. This one carries it some of the way, especially when a candlelit room talks about people as inventory and everyone smiles. The smile is the indictment.

Then the indictment becomes a show. The audience is invited to enjoy the shooter's style more than the woman's freedom. Adults who go should notice which scenes they liked, and whether liking them was a way of looking away from her. Not for a teen who wants a hero's playlist.

Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?

How the West Was Won

55 instead of 43

How the West Was Won is still a western film, and it scores 55 instead of 43. What you gain is industry: They farm, raft, and ride, and the film respects the labor of a migration.
