What Parents Need to Know
About The Longest Yard
Parents need to know that this film pushes the edges of the PG-13 rating. It features repeated crude language (including one "f--k" and several uses of the "N" word), frequent violence on and off the football field, including one character burning to death in an explosion, beatings and hard tackles, prison guards slamming their charges' heads and crotches with batons, and inmates assaulting each other. Prisoners are locked in a "hot box" as punishment. Characters drink, smoke, take steroids, and are extremely disrespectful to authorities (cops and prison officials who, according to this film, deserve disrespect). In addition, the movie includes sexual imagery (a woman's cleavage, a woman in her underwear being spanked, gaudy transvestite cheerleaders, implied homosexual activity), and gendered and raced stereotypes serving as "jokes" (an older woman in an ugly wig, a guard who takes estrogen unknowingly and starts behaving like "a girl," and hyper-aggressive black, Latino, and Indian inmates).

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about drugs, steroids, and what it takes to bond in friendship. Families can also discuss the film's depiction of a corrupt prison system and how it sets up the inmates as heroes. What is the appeal of humor based on physical and verbal abuse of characters who are "different" in some way?

accually a pretty good comedy-drama-action packed movie.
well i do not get the PG-13 rating there is a ton of swearing like the f word once, atleast 50 or more times of sh*t, and the n word and all the swearing you could think of, and theres violence, lots of violence. for instence Chris Rocks character dies in an explosion, and gun shots, and beating cons as if they wanted to kill them. and theres sex and drug refrences in it like gay cheerleaders who are men and does sex stuff to men, and drinking and driving(how sandler got in prison) and steriods, and other drugs. and cons beating up cons. Great movie though if you have seen Norbit, Click, or Talladega Nights i highly recomend to see this flick. for kids 13 and up because of what i said in this review. BYE. SEE MY NEXT REVIEW. BBBBBBYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Crude a bit
Well sexual wise there are gay couples and a lot of references. Violence is a bit rough and language just comes out here and there. Be at least 14 to see this ithas to many gay jokes but someone who has seen Click,Austin Powers, or Talladega Nights can definitly see this>

So-So comedy
Pretty funny, some violence, drinking and driving. The only part i didn't like was when the wierdo guy blew up chris rock's character up.

The true ways of adam sandler come through in this jail comedy. Not as bad as some people think. Recommended 8-9+

Funniest Adam Sandler Movie Ever! Fans should see it!

Funny, but not as good as the original
I took my 12 year old son to see this movie and we both had a great time! There are some references to gay sex and Tracy Morgan (SNL) is hilarious as the team's head cheerleader! No one in the cast will win an Oscar, however the film is funny and appropriate for kids 12 and older, due to some of the language and a bit of prison yard violence.

A funny Adam Sandler movie
I liked this movie, but it might be a little inappropiate for kids under the age of 11.

ok for adults - not ok for kids
somewhat entertaining for me. I took my 12 yr old son - it was not appropriate for him.

Bad
The Longest Yard was violent, rude, and had a lot of drug references. Characters are beaten, take steroids, and do other disturbing things. No one under 14 years old should see this movie.

wow!
holy cow, look at all the haters! not a single person gave this movie an at least semi positive review. I thought this was a pretty good movie. I laughed several times and had an overall good time with this movie. Obviously, not everyone shares the same opinions I do. I am just sayin, check it out. Thats it.

Seen the first? Skip this one.
A lot was saved on writer's fees as this closely paralled the original, but with much more sensationalism put into this remake. With the gender issues, drugs (steroids), and the sensational and graphic pain inflictions make this a movie for the more mature. I just don't feel that this is a movie for the younger set, even with a discussion of the issues this film brings forth.

Horrible, Go With The Original
This movie was indespicable. It wasn't funny, it was just stupid. If you like people gettin ghit in the crotches,head, and more areas maybe you'll like it! There is a scene whee the secretary akes adam sandler alone in a room to do SOMETHING, that was innapropriate for young children. Overall, dont waste your money, go see a better movie.
