It's suitable for teenagers, just a little risky for tweens.
I think that this movie is hilarious and very well done, but it does have some inappropriate scenes. Like how Ferris and his girl-friend spread the love quite a bit, and using some bad language. The characters aren't the best role-models since they skipped school to have some fun in the city and how they get into some trouble along the way.

I suggest you getting a TV Guardian before you even THINK about watching this movie!
I love this movie, but language gets in the way!

It is a good film, but my only problem with it is really, the profanity (Mr. Rooney utters the F-word when looking for the dog that attacked him)

not that bad
This movie should've been pg for some language because I watched this on tv and I know if they are bleeping words and they didn't do that much and this movie shouldn't be for 14 and over because it isn't that bad

One of the best for teens-only language is an issue
Still one of my favorite movies for teens ever! One of most clever films John Hughes ever made.There is a lot of profanity but only one F-bomb. No sexual situations but it is discussed. Teens will love it. Ferris Bueller may be a bad role model for kids because he skips school and lies to the authority figures, but he's so clever and has an incredible power of making people like him (remember all the Save Ferris campaigns?) that you can't help liking him. Kids will want to emulate his always positive attitude, but it's unlikely they'll want to do what he does-it's made pretty obvious that's it very hard to get away with it, and he only does by luck, by his very sharp wits, and through his friends-messages that speak louder to kids than that of disobeying authority. After all, all Ferris wanted was to see the world and get out of his confining high school-who wouldn't want to do the same after seeing the school he goes to (a devilishly humorous look at how school must seem to a guy like him).

Perfect for tweens to 99+ years olds!
This movie is so lighthearted, and even though there is some profanity, the movie overall is a really good watch. Tweens and teens alike can watch it without little concern, and if there's trouble with influence, take note that Ferris's bad habits are not to be followed. Otherwise, enjoy!

The best John Hughes movie.
My rating: PG-13 for language and some sensuality.

Suitable But Harsh
This movie is suitable for PG-13 though a naked lady is shown on Ferris' computer at the beginning of the movie and an F bomb is thrown into cussing, making the profanity a bit harsh
