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. |

Pauly Shore invades a Midwestern family's Thanksgiving and
challenges their "traditional" values with his weirdness, until they realize
that he's really an enchanted stranger with an immeasurable appreciation of life's
complexities.
SEX/NUDITY 5 - A couple of people in thongs and skimpy bathing suits, and
two shots of bare male behinds. Also, two women kiss romantically, a couple is shown
necking and there are many explicit sexual references.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - Only a couple of serious punches, one of which results in
a bloody nose. A turkey is threatened with decapitation, but nothing is shown. The rest of
the violence is strictly slapstick.
PROFANITY 4 - While the F-word is never spoken, many of its euphemisms are
used bluntly and repeatedly. Also, some scatological and anatomical references, as well as
gestures. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Pre-marital sex, incest, homosexuality.
MESSAGE - Do not judge by appearances: some people may seem weird on the
outside, but are really nice inside.

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. |
