Explicit sexual situations and conversations, which were WAY too much for me. Language was also an issue. Why is the f word needed again?

What Parents Need to Know
About Spanglish
Parents need to know that this movie contains a mess of mixed messages all neatly wrapped in stereotypes. There is an unfeeling scene of simulated sex, adultery, cruel mother/daughter behavior, drinking, drinking, drinking, and lots of salty language and gestures.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about classism and sexism. They might ask their kids what the filmmakers were trying to say about marriage, mother/daughter relationships, and cultural identity.

A satisfying drama
Again I was impressed by this movie. Adam Sandler is not his usually gross self but does excellent in playing a serious role. The message of this movie made you think about stereotyping and class distinction and family members roles. I thought it was really good!

Spanglish: Why stale Mr. Sandler is not stale anymore.
If you like Spanish, English, and somewhat offensive stereotypes, or one of them, this movie is for you! The story is confusing, which is the only problem. Watch it!
