Across the Universe (PG-13, 2007)

This is one of my favorite movies ever. Besides having great music and choreography, this movie had an interesting and deep storyline. It isn't just fluff. Now on to the "inappropriate" material involved in this film. 1. There is nudity. It might make some younger kids go "yuck," but I say, what is wrong with the human body? 2. The characters do drugs, drink, etc. However, I belive this is okay if your kids know that these things are bad. 3. There are a couple scenes of fighting. This is the part where you should know your kid. Will they not be bothered by this, or will they have nightmares? I think this is a great movie, but only a certain age group will enjoy it. Either you get it or you don't. Know your kid, or you might be answering questions the whole 133 minutes.

One of the best movies I have ever seen. A beautiful movie, with beautiful singing by beautiful actors/actresses. Julie Taymor at her best, definitely. Watch this film. You won't be disappointed.

Although I enjoy The Beatles, I wasn't amped up going into this movie. However as soon as it began, I could tell it was going to be a good one. The story line was fast enough to keep us going and the use of the music as well as the character development were well entwined with each other. This movie is not just about Beatle Music... You won't be disappointed here. By the way if you like Bono, its your bonus!

I love the music. The actors are amazing singers and can hold up to the legendary originals.

This is a great movie one of my favorites but I was surprised about how much sexuality, nude breasts, language, drugs and violence there was in this movie! I would suggest this for 15 years and older. This movie have excellent music and for music love this movie is for you!!!

Anyone who loves the Beatles or Musicals. Possibly my favorite movie musical.

First off, the nudity. Common Sense makes it look like it's a big issue, but it really isn't. To tell you the truth, there's only two (or three if you count inhuman figures with completely pale skin) scenes with nudity of any sort, and one of them doesn't show a thing. One of them does show one breast, but it's very brief. I guess if you have a problem with drawn breasts, then it might be worse, but honestly, breasts pop up in art all the time. The language wasn't that bad. A few s**ts and one f**k, but other than that, nothing drastic. Of course, this film takes place in the sixties, so there's a lot of drugs and alcohol, but it isn't really a big issue. The violence is probably the biggest issue, and to tell you the truth, it's nothing to worry about. A few scenes regarding the Vietnam war, with some blood, but no serious gore. I actually think this would be a positive experience for your children. It can really teach them a lot about music, art, politics, and love. Definitely a thumbs up.

This was an amazing film. The music is mind-blowing. There is some iffy content though. There are several scenes with drugs, and some which seem to take place in drug-fueled trances. There is also nudity (some bare breasts) and some heavy kissing (nude, in bed, etc.) There are some disturbing violence scenes. Men in Vietnam, and a boy singing as people riot around him. He is later shown dead in a coffin. The movie is also emotionally challenging. Watch yourself before you have your younger teen see it.

My favorite movie! May be a little intense for younger kids. Characters do use drugs although kids will have no idea what they are looking at. There is a little violence although nothing kids haven't seen playing video games. The worst scene of sex is an artistic scene where the two main characters are seen naked and kissing. Nothing bad shown.
