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. |

Susan Sarandon is a compassionate nun and Sean Penn the
hardened criminal she befriends.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Sexual innuendo, bare buttocks of a rape victim (as she lies
facedown after the rape).
VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - Flashbacks to a violent rape and murder: we see a man shot
in the back of the head and a woman is raped. We see men kneeling between her legs, and
unzipping their pants. An execution by lethal injection is shown.
PROFANITY 6 - About 5 F-words, a couple of scatological references, some
mild obscenities, a couple of anatomical references. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Rape and murder, prison, executions, compassion and
forgiveness.
MESSAGE - Every human deserves compassion, forgiveness and love.

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. |
