ASSIGNED NUMBERS |
|
|
Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context. |

Freddie Prinze Jr. and Claire Forlani are best friends who
suffer through failed romantic relationships while trying to figure out what men and women
really want from each other. Also with Jason Biggs, Alyson Hannigan, Amanda Detmer and
Heather Donahue. [1:40]
SEX/NUDITY 5 - Lots of sexual innuendo and many kisses (a couple are
passionate; in one scene, a woman starts kissing another briefly). A man and woman kiss
passionately and take off each other's shirts (his bare chest and her bra-clad torso
are visible); she kisses his bare chest, then they fall onto a bed and continue to kiss
passionately until the scene ends. The next morning we see him lying alone in bed, nude
but sheet-covered; he pulls her on top of him when she comes back in the room and they
briefly kiss. We see a woman wearing a robe and a man wearing boxers, presumably
post-coitus. In a scene during the ending credits, we see a man wearing boxers surrounded
by four women in bras and panties (we briefly see the backsides of two women wearing
buttock-revealing thongs); they ask if he's ever been with four women, but nothing
sexual happens. We see many women wearing cleavage- and midriff-revealing tops; in one
scene we glimpse a small part of the side of a woman's breast (her small shirt
briefly gapes at the side; it doesn't seem like an intentional shot).
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - Mostly played for laughs. In a mock ceremony during a
football game, boys try to "stab" the team's mascot; he's finally
pushed to the ground, resulting in a small bloody cut on his forehead. A man accidentally
hits another in the head with a cue ball, then hits him in the crotch with a pool stick; a
man falls backwards off some steps; a woman playfully smacks a man's chest; twice, a
woman slaps a man's face; a few football players are tackled during a game; and a man
briefly chases another. A TV smashes on a sidewalk (it's implied a woman threw it out
of a window) and a woman smashes a guitar against a wall.
Several people pass gas loudly in one scene.
PROFANITY 4 - Several anatomical references, some scatological references,
several mild obscenities, and an insult. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Love relationships, falling in love, one night stands,
friendship, false identities, therapy, breaking up, college life.
MESSAGE - The right person for you might be right in front of you.
Don't let fear stop you from going after what you want.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
