A great movie, full of great voicework and second-hand embarrassment.

To judge the Earth, aliens grant a single man the power of wishing, but he's an everyday guy and has no idea how to handle it.
A moderately good movie, with solid comedy throughout it. I only really care about it because of its subject matter and the way it handles it. Strangely, he grants himself wisdom early on but never clues into using it to give him proper understanding of it and how to use it. That's the major theme of the movie, and the source of its comedy.

A coming of age story of a class of students learning poetry in an unorthodox way.
While I recommend and like this, it not great.
Something about it makes it feel somehow inelegant or simple, perhaps even predictable. Perhaps it stood out in its era, and it caught me at an impressionable moment for my first viewing, but as I watch it again it doesn't grab me much at all. I think this would be weakly-mandatory for creating a well-rounded movie-learning experience in someone young.

Just noting it so I don't accidentally re-watch it; it sucked.
