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. |

Disney's somewhat-true story of the romance between Native
American Pocahontas and British settler John Smith (voice by Mel Gibson).
SEX/NUDITY 1 - A few kisses, some hugs, hand-holding, face touching.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Two men are shot, one to death. A fight between Native
Americans and settlers results in gunfire and explosions. Two men fight with knives, clubs
and fists. A man is tied to a post and threatened with death. A storm at sea results in a
person going overboard.
PROFANITY 0 - None. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Race relations, war, sacrifice, our relationship with nature
and animals, settling a new country.
MESSAGE - We cannot own nature; listen to your heart; war and fighting are
wrong; we can learn from people different from 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. |
