He's Just Not That Into You

35Leave it.

One useful sentence, buried in a lot of adult fidgeting. Not harmful. Not worth the morning.

The review

The sentence is worth more than the film: if he wanted to, he would, and a story you tell yourself about his mixed signals is often a story. Then the film, being a romance, breaks its own rule for the leads. A thirteen-year-old does not need the Baltimore apartments. She might someday need the sentence, from you, in plainer clothes.

Skip the movie. Keep the sentence if it is already in the house.

Live Historic number 35. Yours can differ.

The glance

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

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

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

To All the Boys I've Loved Before

49 instead of 35

To All the Boys I've Loved Before is still a comedy film, and it scores 49 instead of 35. What you gain is household: A widowed father, three sisters, a kitchen.

The eight

4
Industry
Jobs exist: real estate, an office, a bar.
4
Household
Marriages in trouble. The trouble is the subject, treated lightly.
2
Piety
No vow that governs. Exceptions whenever the plot wants a kiss.
3
Courage
Telling a friend the truth takes a little nerve.
3
Republic
A friend group as the whole public.
4
Temperance
Adult longing, mild by this row's standard.
5
Truth
The title is a true thing. The movie keeps inventing exceptions.
3
Stewardship
Little to hand on but the sentence in the title.

Pass it on

Alice Through the Looking Glass

35Leave it.

A sequel that thinks a regret can be edited. Weaker than the first, and wrong about the clock.

The review

The first film sent Alice out of a bad engagement and into a war, which was at least a choice about her own life. This one sends her into the machinery of Time to undo the Hatter's grief. The film is lavish and hollow. Time is a comic villain until the story needs him to be right, and he is right: you do not get to loot yesterday because you are fond of someone.

Skip it unless the house already loves these faces and can hear the correction. The correction is late. A clock is not your enemy because it will not give you a different childhood.
