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. |

Cate Blanchett is Elizabeth, the Protestant Queen of
England, who must defend her life and throne against religious and political enemies.
Geoffrey Rush, Joseph Fiennes, Kathy Burke, Richard Attenborough, Fanny Ardant,
Christopher Eccleston and Vincent Cassel co-star. [2:04]
SEX/NUDITY 6 - Sexual innuendo. Passionate kissing and embracing. In two
scenes, we see a man and woman having sex with sound and movement; in one of the scenes,
we see her bare breasts and his bare buttocks. Several men and women appear to be having
an orgy (some bare breasts are visible). We see several women's bare breasts (one bare
breast is seen in a picture of a nursing woman).
VIOLENCE/GORE 7 - Men scalp three others (we see their bloody heads), then
set them on fire. In several different scenes, a man's throat is slit, a man is shot with
an arrow and a few people are stabbed and killed (all scenes show varying amounts of
blood). From a distance, we see a man using a rock to kill someone. A woman dies from
wearing a poisoned dress. A man whips himself and we see bloody marks on his back. A man
is hung upside down and beaten with a torch (his face is bloody). We see some bloody heads
on stakes. Lots of dead bodies -- some bloody -- are strewn about a battlefield.
PROFANITY 2 - A few mild scatological references and insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Religious warfare, the British monarchy, death,
determination.
MESSAGE - Defend your country and your religious beliefs to the death.

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. |
