Reviews:

Yochanan reviewed a subtitled popular Hong Kong based movie 'Back to the
Past' that does have time travel & a lot of action.  He had fun, rates it a
'B+' and says it's worth matinee plus.  There was some discussion on the
genre, with Duncan recommending 'Back Alley Princess' from 1973

           Yochanan also reviewed his 'away mission' - a trip to San
Francisco on Feb 12th for a Star Trek event that included loot-bags & ran
through the 16th.  He considered it to be a really successful idea and he
had a lot of fun and took public transportation

           Yochanan also reviewed a movie streaming on Prime, 'Absolutely
Anything', starring Simon Pegg - a 'light-hearted comedy about the fate of
the planet'.  He loved it & rates it as definitely worth full streaming
price

Rick reviewed 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' & has seen most, but not
all, of this season as 'boy is it pretty!'  It's quite good, well-written &
he is enjoying it a great deal

Ken reviewed this last week's episode of 'Starfleet Academy' as definitely
worth the subscription to Paramount Plus.  He enjoyed the episode & there
was discussion.  Rick mentioned it has a plot twist.  Yochanan just loved
it - although he noted that it felt a little long
