You Can Call Me Bill Movie Reviews

A preemptive eulogy of sorts

William Shatner – he likes to be called Bill – has had an accomplished career. One where he has reinvented himself several times over transforming from Kirk to Hooker to Crane. From author to spokesman to astronaut to …singer (and no, you do not need to imbibe on Romulan ale to enjoy his rocking “Common People” single from 2004). If anyone deserves a curtain call, Bill Shatner gets my vote. The documentary You Can Call Me Bill is a partial answer to such a victory lap. For over 90 minutes, Bill reminisces, waxes poetic, and frets on the future. Sometimes simultaneously. Often in a stream of consciousness. However, if You Can Call Me Bill is designed as a celebration, why does it come across as aimless as your grandfather commiserating about current events over Thanksgiving dinner?

Albeit a grandfather who happens to be Captain Kirk.

You Can Call Me Bill becomes a preemptive eulogy of sorts. For Shatner fans of all sizes, the movie is accessible and entertaining. Yet all of that humor, all of that love of life are only shown in the clips that the world has already enjoyed and celebrated. You Can Call Me Bill instead focuses on the solitary life of a solo man. Sitting in the dark. Waiting for the final curtain to close.

Penetrating View of William Shatner’s Life and Thoughts

I love the original series of Star Trek. It is without question my favorite TV show. I have been to Star Trek conventions and watched the episodes countless times. And yes, not all the episodes are great or even good, but many are truly amazing in both their time and ours. Many very talented people worked on the show, but I think two contributors really set the tone: Gene Roddenberry for his vision, and William Shatner for his commanding presence — he WAS the Captain of the Enterprise.

All this being said, this movie has little to do with Star Trek, and everything to do with an amazing actor who is just entering his 93rd year. Happy birthday Bill! Yes, there are clips from Star Trek and many of his other roles, and yes it’s true that this documentary is not presented in a conventional, linear fashion. But what really springs to life is the thinking and the spirituality of a man who cares deeply for his planet and all the life on it. And what could be truer to Star Trek than that?

Plenty To Satisfy

I saw You Can Call Me Bill, starring William Shatner-Boston Legal_tv, T. J. Hooker_tv.

This is a documentary about the life of William Shatner. It consists of interviews and clips of his appearances in tv shows, movies and even his recent space trip, in his 90’s-he just turned 93. If you are a fan of him and his work, you will find plenty to satisfy you. Clips are shown from Star Trek, T. J. Hooker, Boston Legal, his Twilight Zone episodes, old westerns…..well, just about everything he has been in. It covers his philosophies on life, such as his love of animals-dogs and horses are his favorite-and basically, the whole planet and the eco system. He talks about how he wants to be buried and it’s probably not how you think. The only problem I had was that things are not told in order. He will talk about a show or movie and then jump back to when he was a kid. It’s like that through out the movie.

It’s rated PG-13 for language and drug use and has a running time of 1 hour & 36 minutes.

Like I said, it’s for his fans so if you are one, then it would be a good one to stream.
