ASSIGNED NUMBERS |

D. B. Sweeney is the grandson and Peter Falk the irascible
grandfather in this bittersweet comedy about family ties and values.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - Some sexual talk. A couple kiss passionately in a car and
later on a bed, where they begin to disrobe. A man is shown shirtless, and a young boy's
buttocks are shown.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - A man hits another man in the nose with his head leaving a
bloody nose. A fight results in a bloody lip. A few hospital emergency room scenes with
bloody patients, and a couple of surgeries with blood shown going through tubing. A car
accident is shown to the point of impact. A few scenes of familial yelling.
PROFANITY 2 - One scatological term and many milder obscenities. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Old age, imminent death, medical training.
MESSAGE - Family takes care of family.

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. |
