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. |

Hugh Grant is a doctor who discovers a nefarious medical
plot.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - Two naked men run down a city street and we see their
buttocks and their crotches in shadows.
VIOLENCE/GORE 7 - Close-ups of bloody wounds during medical procedures and
in other situations. People are shot and there are some deaths as a result. A man has
bloody hands and blood is dripping onto his shoes. A man is hit by a subway train
(offscreen) and two men are nearly hit. A man is electrocuted on the subway track. Men
have convulsions. A couple of fistfights; a fight in an elevator results in blood on the
elevator walls. A man is hit across the back with a bat. A man is shot and lies in a pool
of blood. Reckless driving, foot chases.
PROFANITY 7 - About 25 F-words, some mild obscenities and scatological
references, a few anatomical references. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Paralysis, medical experimentation, doctors.
MESSAGE - You shouldn't kill one person even in order to save many; doctors
shouldn't play God; the end does not justify the means.

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. |
