A thinker movie for the light hearted
This is actually a really funny movie - not that I wasn't expecting it to be, but it was funnier than I thought it would be. It somehow manages to take the concept of smoking, and make it funny and horrific. The entire movie is very clever, every line very witty, so it's definitely more of a thinking movie. But even so, there are still some sexual scenes and swearing that may be a little over your kid's heads for now. So if your kid can tolerate it, 14+ is my recommendation. :) Hope I helped!

Very funny!
I laughed a lot. This movie is a good time, if you're mature enough to handle it. You just have to remember that smoking is bad.

What's the big deal?
So the characters promote smoking. Big deal. I've watched the movie at least a dozen times and I've lost count of how many times I read the book. I've never even thought about smoking. I know that smoking can cause cancer and kill you, but if an adult who understands the risks wants to smoke, it's nobody's business to tell them they can't. The characters in the movie don't smoke, so the actors and film-makers aren't promoting smoking. Also, the movie is rated R for a reason (namely, sex and language). If you let your child watch this, you need to ask yourself: who's really the bad one here? The people defending the rights of legal adults who choose a behavior, or the parents allowing their children to watch a movie chock-full of sex and language?
The movie is great, full of very good actors and very funny lines. Definitely worth watching, plus I recommend the book.

I laughed!
This was in fact a pretty good movie, but i do not recomend it for chilren under the age of 15 because it includes alot of language, sexual behavior,and it might cause some people to try smoking.This movie has alot of humor that is good, but it is not humor that kids should be hearing. This movie is about a spokesperson for a cigarette company. Because he is the spokesperson for a company that kills so many people he ends up being hated.

Probably seen worse
I watched this with my eleven year old cousin. (She was 10 at the time) Note this kid has seen worse and could probably beat up my high school's football team. Anyway the more we watched the more I realized she probably shouldn't be watching this and then she turns to me and says "I saw R- rated movies when i was 7 this isn't as bad as any of the others." Makes you wonder huh? Anyway, if you child is anything like my cousin go for it i love this movie but if not then i'd hold off till their about 14.
