What Parents Need to Know
About Dreamcatcher
Parents need to know that this movie is intensely scary and violent. Characters use very strong language and make explicit and graphic sexual references. One character abuses alcohol, and many drink and smoke.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about disabled people, and why some people go out of their way to pick on them while others appreciate their gifts. What made the four boys so loyal to each other? How do we know when a person like Kurtz has gone too far, and at that point, who can stop him? He makes a Jeremy Bentham-like argument that the ends justify the means.

Worst movie of the year so far
Pretentious and disgusting, this movie is perfect retribution for William Goldman's idiotic article slamming Martin Scorcese. I love it when movies go really wrong.
