Speed (R, 1994)

The only really violent part was at the beginning when the bad guy stabs somebody in the ear. It looks nasty.

This movie was great! It was action-packed, and had a very clever criminal! VIOLENCE: There is some violence in this movie. The violence is bloody. A few people die from explosions. A person gets their head decapitated on camera. This is shown some-what fast, but you can still see it. Overall, not super violent, and there isn't hundreds of people dying like in other movies. There is less than fifty deaths. SEX AND NUDITY: Two people say they can base their relationship off of sex. A guy says he will go home and have sex. DRUGS: I don't remember there being any drugs. A few people may smoke, but that would be it. LANGUAGE: There is about fifteen F-words. Not too bad for an R-rated movie. Overall, once a kid can handle some-what bloody deaths, a few F-words, and two uses of the word "sex", then they can see this awesome movie!

This movie was AMAZING. So exciting and intense, a total THRILLER. There may have been too much cussing but the overall movie was spectacular.

amazing action/mystery with scene after scene of explosive action. it would be pg 13 if it had less f bombs and if the security guard was not stabbed in the head.

While it is intensely violent and is often quiet vesceral in it's detailed explosions and action sequences, Speed is a film that teens will be able to appreciate for it's scope on a limited budget for the time it was made in 1994 ($28,000,000), it's villain who is brilliantly played by Dennis Hopper, as always, and finally of course, for the frenetic and exhausting pace of the action sequences. Although, it is not appropriate for tweens considering the violence and the frequent strong language which includes several uses of the F-words. Still, strap in for the ride.

Definately a movie for action lovers. There is tons of peril and violence, and the action never stops until the very end. There isn't much gore exept for the beginning and end, but the explosions and tension never end. There are countless f-words, but they are not constant- they're mostly spread out. While the movie is violent, the heroes are extremely brave and never stop trying to save citizens. There is also some humor in the movie, which lightens the very tense mood at times, which is good. I highly recomend this movie for mature action movie lovers- it's a film you definately need to see if you're into these movies.
