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. |

Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte star in this tale of two
intrepid reporters who find love and danger while trying to solve a mystery.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - We see the naked backs of a man -- and a woman when she goes
skinny dipping. There are a few passionate kisses -- some taking place in bed. There are
also two rather sexy dance scenes between a man and a woman in a bar. Some sexual
innuendoes.
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - There is violent tension, death and destruction, but not
much gore. The aftermath of a train wreck is shown: a dead body is seen with a bullet hole
in the head, but there's little blood. There are a lot of flying bullets. A man falls into
an elevator, two people are almost hit by a car, two men do fall to their deaths, and two
other people almost fall to their deaths. A woman gets punched in the face and ends up
with a black eye.
PROFANITY 2 - One scatological term and a few mild profanities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Career vs. relationships, competition, sexual tension,
genetic engineering.
MESSAGE - You can find love in the most unexpected places.

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. |
