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. |

Bill Murray inherits an elephant he must transport
cross-country.
SEX/NUDITY 1 - Mild sexual innuendo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - Mainly played for laughs: reckless driving, the elephant
causes property damage and near rioting, scuffles, threatening with a tire iron and animal
electric prod (the prod does shock someone and an elephant is prodded with the electric
prod offscreen).
PROFANITY 3 - A possible F-word (it's mumbled and hard to make out), one
scatological reference, a few mild obscenities and a couple of anatomical references. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Death of a parent, absentee fathers, inheritance, bond
between humans and animals.
MESSAGE - Sometimes you have to put your own needs second.

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. |
