What Parents Need to Know
About The Road to Perdition
Parents need to know that this movie has predictably coarse language from the 1930s gangsters, as well as some bloody murder scenes, always by gunfire. A woman and small child are killed off screen, and the main characters are often in peril.

Good movie.
A great masterpiece with a message. Contains several bloody murders and may be disturbing for youngsters. Teenagers above the age of 16 may enjoy this movie.

Violent--very--but excellent acting and plot...
This movie was --obviously-- very violent, but it had a great father-son relationship toward the end of the movie and I enjoyed it. Very--oh-- interestingly coolish....yeh...

The desperate heart of early industrial America
A fine movie, with a neat theme of a father having to hide his true profession from his son, who nonetheless glimpses the truth one harrowing night. Good film noir mood. Excellent acting. Nice material to ponder on children's perceptions of their parent's work.
