A good movie that features drugs from the first 5 words to the last 7 but cuts down in the middle, but of course that's when it is accidently used. Language not terrible but if you're overprotective, remember you got to let go sometime.T he movie was weak in values but gosh it's based off a old old show. The movie had no nudity, sexual content was minor but still kinda bad for little kids. In action, kinda so so but the comedy was great. There you go, that's all, but give it a shot.

What Parents Need to Know
About Starsky & Hutch
Parents need to know that this movie has very explicit sexual situations and references for a PG-13, including "comic" gay overtones, a threesome (with girls kissing each other), and the swapping of mild sexual favors for information from an informant. A character accidentally ingests cocaine, and his strung-out meltdown is played for humor. Other characters drink and use cocaine (off-camera) and the plot centers on a huge cocaine deal. Characters are in peril. One is killed and a child is injured. There's some strong language, including racial epithets. A strength of the movie is the way that diverse characters work together. Some audience members may be offended by the fact that the villain is Jewish.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what made Starsky and Hutch change their minds about each other. Why is it good to have friends who are not just like us? What does it mean to say "To err is human, to forgive divine?" (By the way, contrary to the two mis-attributions in the film, that was said by Alexander Pope.)

Ben and Owen always a great comedy!
Starsky(Ben Stiller) and Hutch (Owen Wilson)is a cop team that need to cracka huge case in order to keep thier jobs. Soon they find a dead body in the water. They know that this is thier only chance to redeem thier jobs. So they question a man (vince Vaughn) about it and soon find themself in a bigger case than before. This guy is a drug dealer. Selling pounds and pounds of cocain. So it all up to Starsky and Hutch to get this Drug Dealer in jail.

STARSKY & HUTCH, How is it PG-13?
The film STARSKY & HUTCH is very likeable, even though filled with obvious cliches. I personally don't see this being PG-13 at all. There is lots of violence, strong sexuality, and drug use. Ben and Owen's chemistry is great and Snoop steals the show but no PG-13 here.
