“They don’t make ‘em like they used to!” I hear it all the time. Fact is, they do. A bevy of uplifting, inspiring films has recently hit theaters–—with more on the way. If I may be so bold to repeat the words of our late President Hinckley: “When there is a good movie in town, consider going to the theater as a family. Your very patronage will give encouragement to those who wish to produce this type of entertainment” (“In Opposition to Evil,” Ensign, September 2004).
Here’s a snapshot of what you may have missed on LDS Living this week. You can also subscribe to the LDS Living newsletter for daily inspiration right to your inbox.
Note: I give a letter grade for artistry; this is not necessarily a moral endorsement of the film. I outline content in as much detail as I can to help families make their own decisions. I include Gospel discussion points in case parents or others want to use cinema as a launching pad to share eternal principles.

Note: I review movies for artistry, content, and Gospel-compatible messages. My letter grades are for entertainment value and are not necessarily a moral endorsement of any given film. I assess content without judgment so families can decide what’s best for them. The scripture discussion guides are for those who wish to use these stories to share eternal principles.

Author’s note: My reviews are meant to give families a guide to artistry and content so that they can make their own decisions regarding a given movie. I include scripture-based discussion guides, for those who want to use them, because I was a film-loving kid and my parents used cinema as an effective gateway to teach me more about the Gospel.
