"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde | 1995 | PG-13 | - 6.3.5

Tim Daly is a scientist who discovers the Jekyll/Hyde formula and finds that his alter-ego is Sean Young.

SEX/NUDITY 6 - A man's bare rear end and bare chest are shown a few times. Some kissing. Full frontal female nudity in a shower scene (it's hard to see but not impossible). Two close-up shots of female breasts and a great deal of cleavage. Lots of sexual innuendo and some scatological references. Two suggested sex scenes with moaning behind closed doors. A man fondles himself a couple of times. A man hangs naked in front of a window to the obvious delight of an older woman who is eye level with his crotch. A woman fondles men with her feet under a table; they sigh. A woman fondles a man's crotch; they fall onto a bed and she uncovers her breasts.

VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Young slams a desk into a man's crotch, a man is hit in the nose a few times. A man is burned (we don't see it, but we later see his burned face). A man is shocked and he writhes and yells as his body jerks. The transformation sequences from Dr. Jekyll to Ms. Hyde appear painful.

LANGUAGE 5 - One F-word and one of its derivatives, some scatological references, a few milder obscenities.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Science and biological differences, betrayal.

MESSAGE - We all have a dark side. We must choose to not give in to it.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
