By Robert In Movie Theaters RAIN MAN R Hoffman does some amazing things in the role of Raymond Babbitt an autistic man who is also an idiot savant Raymond cant take care of his most basic life functions yet he can somehow per form complicated multiplications Instantaneously A TV game show addict at the men tal hospital where he lives he has also memorized the entire Abbott and Cos- tello Whos On First routine which he recites obsessively at cru cial moments Raymonds father dies leaving bim million but Raymond doesnt even understand the concept of money Theres the tendency for this char acter with its poignant whimsical echoes of Being There to be a little too cute Using his elfin appeal and halfchoked voice Hoffman occasion ally verges on His Ray mond sometimes suggests an autistic ET But mostly the actor transcends such pitfalls The problem with the film directed by Barry centers on the oth er main character Hoffmans crass yuppie younger brother Charlie Tom Cruise Trying to prop up a failing imported car business Charlie needs the money that Raymond has un knowingly inherited Toward that end he kidnaps Raymond from the hospital setting out on a crosscoun try trip that includes a stop at the gaming tables of Las Vegas Reprising the role of the callow guy who needs to wise up familiar from The Color of Money Cruise yells his way through the first twothirds of the movie before turning gentle and pathetic at the end The transforma tion should be more moving than it but Cruise is only a competent actor at this point in his career and he fails to catch the tragicomic nuances in the character The script bogs down midway too essentially repeating scenes that il lustrate how mismatched the two brothers are and how weirdly bril liant Raymond can be Rain Man becomes anothe- buddy road movie and one without enough local color to sustain the sluggish over-two- hours length But Hoffman keeps the picture interesting and Cruise has his beefcake appeal GRADE DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS In the mood for some elegant oddball silliness Heres the movie that offers it Directed by Frank Oz the man who showed real moviemaking flair in Little Shop of Horrors its a revamping of the 1964 comedy Bedtime Story that starred David and a miscast Marlon Brando The new version is one of those rare remakes that turns out to be better than the original This time both of the leads are very well cast In a variation on the Brando role that of a crass American confi dence man who dupes people by seeming a dupe himself Steve Martin continues to prove that he is the most gracefully inventive physical comedi an in movies He is also one of only a handful of current performers who are reason enough to see a movie Here he gets to don wonderful dis guises playing both a stupefyingly funny halfwit and a profilestriking US army corporal bringing that spe cial Martin glee to both Martins costar the hardworking Michael Caine is no slouch either In the Niven part hes the essence of suavity as a slickhaired Continental con man who gets his comeuppance from Martin and who then teams up with Martin to hoodwink an inno cent abroad the fine young theater actress Glenne Headly More tricks and tableturning follow culminating in a surprise ending Boasting inviting Riviera locations the movie is a sumptuous frolic star turns and slapstick with a nicely jaded edge GRADE New HomeVideo STAND AND DELIVER PG Warner A good story can sometimes surmount a less than stir ring telling An example is this fact- based tale of Jaime the East Los Angeles highschool teacher who took classes of poorly motivated innercity math students and turned them into calculus whizzes The movie is a bit dogeared and simplistic Yet it has an inherent ly pleasing triumph-of-the-under- class kick to it and actor Edward James Olmos Miami Vice is a rev elation as the paunchy balding Esca GRADE W Film grading excellent good fair poor NEWSPAPER Talking with WILLIAM SHATNER STAR SPEAK More

think of the new Star Trek TV series A Ive never had time to watch it This Star Trek V will face stiff competition at movie the- a lot more running and jumping Why has Star Trek been so suc cessful on TV and in films A If I knew that Id be running this studio After years of analysis we still dont know We know it has to do with the cast plot the basic idea be hind the story action adventure hu mor Its an amalgamation of all those elements but when you add them together you dont get an an swer Theres something in the alche my of what we do but we really dont know what It is Its like some cook who doesnt work by recipes but goes by taste and throws a dollop of this and a dab of that and hopes it will all come out And in our case it does Why did you build a new Star Trek bridge Why not use the one from the previous f Urn A It seems the philosophy here is aters in the form of Batman Ka- that Its cheaper to destroy the set rate Kid ID and the third Indiana than to store it because they dont adventure Are you know If theyre going to use it again This bridge cost 1 hope they save this one so we can use the money on Star Trek for something else Speaking of Star Trek VI the film series seems unstoppable Wilt you bboldly going where no man to see those pictures you can has gone before for the rest of your rod get all three together A We throw In some blows that look like karate We
