Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home

65Worth an evening.

The jokes are the trip to 1986. The bill is a species the future already spent.

The review

The joke is future people loose in a city, and it is a good joke. They do not know 1986. The street does not know them. Older kids can follow a simple errand, and nobody has to brief a war first.

Under that, a probe is tearing the Earth apart looking for a whale song the future already used up. They come to take two humpbacks home. Nobody treats the animals as a gadget the plot may break. If you want only noise, this will feel too pleased with itself. If you want a light film that still thinks a spent creature is a debt, this is the one.

Journal

Keep Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home in the record.

No house has filed a sentence for this yet.

Live Historic number 65. Yours can differ.

The glance

Household is the thin one.

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.

Consider this

Spider-Man 2

73 instead of 65

Spider-Man 2 is still a science-fiction film, and it scores 73 instead of 65. What you gain is household: An aunt he tells the truth to, late.

The eight

6
Industry
A ship's crew has one job: get two whales home before a probe finishes the Earth.

No marriage, parent, or child is the life here. Friends run an errand for a planet.
6
Piety
They treat a used-up species as a wrong, not as something the future was free to spend.
7
Courage
They walk into another year for two whales, with the Earth at stake if they fail.
8
Republic
The probe is tearing a planet apart for a song the future already silenced.
7
Temperance
The future already spent the whales. The film does not ask you to enjoy the spending.
7
Truth
The missing song is not a legend. The probe comes because the whales are gone.
9
Stewardship
They cross years to return two humpbacks to a future that had used the species up.

A Little Princess

65Worth an evening.

Keep it. Imagination here is a way of telling the truth about a person's worth, not an escape from the attic.

The review

Sara's kindness in the attic is the film's argument, and it is not cheap because the film lets her be hungry. Miss Minchin worships money and calls it standards. The other girls learn which authority is real. There is a softness to the ending that a strict reading of the book might resist, and the softness is a mercy for a child audience. The picture to keep is the one where she gives the bun away.

A young house can watch this whenever someone has started ranking the children. Rank is the villain.

The glance

Piety is the thin one.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

Spirited Away

78 instead of 65

Spirited Away is still a family film, and it scores 78 instead of 65. What you gain is industry: She earns the rescue by labor.
