Welcome to the Rileys

The good stuff * Role models: A philanderer is a complex character -- he has a heart of gold, but he betrays his wife ... but it's because he’s in a lot of pain from the death of their child. He later takes on the role of surrogate father to a teenage prostitute, trying to guide her back to a more conventional lifestyle, though doing so significantly disrupts his marriage. What to watch out for * Messages: The movie sends the message that grief can make people do unexpected things; in this case, Doug decides to sell his successful business and abandons his wife to help out a teenage prostitute who reminds him of his dead daughter. His choices don’t always make sense, but they seem to make him feel better, at least at first. * Violence: A woman runs over a garbage can and hits a pole in her own driveway. A prostitute talks about a violent encounter but is dissuaded from seeking revenge. * Sex: A man has an affair; he and his lover are shown in the shadows snuggling under covers. A stripper/prostitute offers to perform certain acts for a client in the VIP room of her club; she's shown straddling him, but he declines to engage in anything else. She also discusses working in a peep show, what customers do there, and what sexual acts she will and won’t do. A woman’s bare behind is shown. * Language: “Bulls--t,” “s--t,” “p---y,” “f--k nuts,” “coo-ers” -- the language runs the entire gamut. A teenager swears a lot; another character points this out and even fines her for it. * Consumerism: Not an issue. * Drinking, drugs, & smoking: A man lights up a cigarette in the film’s first frame, and he smokes and drinks often throughout the rest of the movie. Men smoke during a poker game. A teenager smokes weed and offers an older man a hit.
