Martin Short stars as a ten-year-old boy who terrorizes his
uncle, played by Charles Grodin.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Bare-breasted natives on an "educational" TV show
Clifford's watching.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Some objects, including a child, fall out of a window and
hit a man on the head. A man chokes a boy briefly. A woman punches her boss. A man places
a boy on an amusement park ride and sends it out of control. All's done for comic effect.
PROFANITY 2 - Two scatological references and one mild profanity are
uttered. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Child rearing and discipline.
MESSAGE - If you destroy everyone who stands in the way of your dreams you
end up alone, with no dreams at all.

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. |
