What Parents Need to Know
This review of Big Momma's House was written by Nell Minow
Parents need to know that this movie contains a lot of sexual humor and potty jokes. There is brief nudity, including the real Big Momma's backside. Violence includes a menacing bad guy, characters in peril, fighting, and gunplay.
Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about Sherry's mistake and how she handled it, stereotypes of the elderly, how we decide whom to trust, and the way that families support each other through bad times.

What’s the Story?
Is It Any Good?
Co-producer Lawrence is marvelous at times, using his eyes and body to hilarious effect, and showing a potential for tenderness and heart so enticing that we wish for more. Nia Long has sweetness, toughness, and humor, and it's always a pleasure to see talented character actor Paul Giamatti. But the script is very weak, relying heavily on bathroom humor, jokes about sexy old people, and Momma's highly un-grandmotherly feelings for Sherry. Inconsistencies of plot and character keep the audience from connecting to the material.

15+........ you guys are crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111111
This is a funny movie with Martin Lawrence. The main issue in the movie is the cuss words. some s@$T is used alot. No F bomb. One of my favorite movies. The scene about the baby might fly through youngsters' heads. I saw it with my Aunt Kathey as the Big Pink. The real Big Momma shows her big butt(which is not neccasary). It is 12+. If you're younger you should watch it on tv. Cedric's in it-well duhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!. 15+ is wrong. Nia Long is also great. I loved the movie!
