An excellent movie, if you raised your kids right there should be no problem.
The satire of this movie is perfect, but it could be lost on younger viewers. So I'll so nobody under twelve, but a very hilarious movie nonetheless

Blazing Saddles
Very very funny. A little fun fact: Blazing Saddles was the first movie to have farts, and when it first in theaters they made it silent so all you see was 10 cowboys randomly getting up around a campfire.

Love it!
This movie is rated R for one reason: Language. Swearing is constant and the sherrif is not liked in the beginning since he is african american but his heroic actions in stopping rustlers from destroying the town really made the people grow on him. Sadly, in the end, he leaves to help other towns. The n-word is used often since it is in an early time where there was slavery. The only real problem is language. Violence is slapstick like when everyone was joining the fight into the hollywood studios. People drink at the saloon and the waco kid (Gene wilder) is a heavy drinker who befriends the sherrif. I really liked it. good for 11+ due to its frequent swearing and racial slurs

Hilarious! A must-see!
Unbelievable! Hilarious simply does not do this film justice! It is the funniest, best, western spoof movie you'll ever see! It's only bad because they say the 'N' word a lot. But they're doing this to make fun of the sheriff, who is black. Most of the innapropriote stuff is for humorous purposes. I'd let anyone 9+ see it!

A must see for tweens and up!
Although there is some drinking in this film, I believe that it is a must-see for teens and pre-teens. Award Winning director: Mel Brooks has outdone himself again. Hilarious. If you do not worry about your kids seeing people drinking, there is no reason why they should not see this movie.

One of the funniest movies ever made
this movie has got to be one of the funniest movies ever made, its a timeless classic with great comedic performances, great jokes, and one of the best screenplays ever. This should be required viewing for everybody who likes movies.

Satire at its finest
Watch with the kids and be ready to explain that Brooks is poking fun at racists and showing them up to be idiots. This movie provides a great vehicle to discuss satire with your kids and how satire can be used to make social commentary.
That said dont forget this is a truly funny comedy in the best Brooks tradition.

Good movie
Lots of sexual innuendo will fly over most kids heads but quite a bit of racial language. Although no f bombs racial remarks are common. Movie at its core is funny and makes fun of racists.

Wonderful Mel Brooks satire for teens and up
This is one of my favorite Mel Brooks movies. It actually has a great message about racism, but the way homosexuals are portrayed is a bit iffy. If your kids want to watch this, make sure you watch it with them and explain that this is a satire and what that is.
