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.
SEX/NUDITY 8 - In seven scenes there are bare breasts seen, and in one scene
we see a woman's G-string clad buttocks. In a few sex scenes we see a man or a woman on
top with thrusting and caressing and one scene implies oral sex: A woman sits on a man's
lap and caresses her own breasts, a man lies behind a woman while caressing her breasts
and a man kisses and strokes a woman's spread, bare legs. A woman is on top of a man (both
scantily clad) and she is gyrating and thrusting wildly. Lots of sexual innuendo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A few scuffles, a couple slaps to the face, a slap on the
head.

PROFANITY 8 - About 45 F-words, many scatological references, many
anatomical references, many mild obscenities, some racial slurs (African-Americans
referring to other African- Americans). [profanity glossary]
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.
