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. |

Tommy Lee Jones and Will Smith battle aliens.
SEX/NUDITY 1 - Sexual innuendo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - Scary looking aliens (tentacles come out of mouths, they
look like insects). Aliens are shot and goo explodes all over people. An alien's head is
shot off and he regrows one immediately. A man is pulled into a pit and we hear screams
and crunching sounds; then a body is shown and it looks like a bag of skin. An
exterminator is killed when his wand is shoved down his throat. A human body is seen
decaying. We see a man squished in half, with his legs by his head. An alien eats a human
and we see the alien's intestines. An alien's tentacle sticks someone in the neck and
kills him. An alien pulls his skin back very tight and we see gums, etc. Explosions. A
ball spins around and hits walls and people. Chases, reckless driving, scuffles, falls
(with splat sounds). In a couple of scenes people are tossed around.
PROFANITY 4 - Many scatological references, many mild obscenities and some
anatomical references, one profane hand gesture. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Aliens, law enforcement, world domination.
MESSAGE - Aliens do exist and they are among us.

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. |
