The Amazing Digital Circus: The Last Act
The threat of abstracting is real in ‘The Amazing Digital Circus.’ Parents will note that some of the content here failed to follow suit.
Propeller One-Way Night Coach
‘Propeller One-Way Night Coach’ is a story about a mom and son’s plane flight. It tries to be nostalgic. But despite its colorful patina, it’s all rather flightless.
Animal Farm
‘Animal Farm’ is a strangely dissonant adaptation which tries to stretch a somber, cautionary tale into a sort of wacky animated comedy.
The Legend of Hei 2
The Legend of Hei 2 is cute with good messages, but it’s also thematically heavy with tons of Chinese spirituality and a bit of violence, too.
A Great Awakening
‘A Great Awakening’ is Sight & Sound at its finest. It is a masterful story of George Whitefield and Benjamin Franklin’s unique friendship.
Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope
The first ‘Star Wars’ film to ever hit theaters is a classic, no question. But even the classics deserve caution, and ‘A New Hope’ proves that, too.
Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back
‘The Empire Strikes Back’ deserves its stellar reputation, but it’s a darker film than its predecessor—and it comes with a few more content mynocks.
Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi
‘Return of the Jedi’ wraps up the original ‘Star Wars’ trilogy with lots of flashy, lightsaber-swinging, blaster-firing, Sith-lightning fare.
Hoppers
Pixar’s ‘Hoppers’ encourages viewers to be better stewards of the planet. But the messages (and the comedy) fall a little flat.
He Calls Me Daughter
‘He Calls Me Daughter’ comforts girls and women hurt by their earthly dads, helping them to overcome their “father wound” and see the beauty of our heavenly Father.
