  • Movie: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

    I rate this titleiffyand give it4.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence

    • My highlights are:
    • Good role models

    If you like the books, you'll like the movies

    Although the movie isn't released quite yet, many fans have read and re-read the books, so they'll know what dark events are coming. There are deaths and injuries, but the extent of language is ...

  • DVD: Hairspray (2007)

    I rate this titleonand give it3.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive consumerism

    • My highlights are:
    • Positive messages
    • Good role models

    Sweet, addictive musical with a lot of heart

    The character of Tracy Turnblad sets an amazing example for audiences of all ages - she stands up for African-American rights, stands up for her friends, and is an all-around good citizen. There are ...

  • DVD: Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story

    I rate this titleiffyand give it5.0
    My concerns are:
    • Inappropriate sexual content
    • Inappropriate language

      Hilarious comedy, well worth seeing

      Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn star in this raunchy comedy for older teens. If you're okay with strong, un-subtle sexual references and slightly strong language, then you will definitely enjoy this ...

    • DVD: The Dark Knight

      I rate this titleiffyand give it4.0
      My concerns are:
      • Excessive violence
      • Negative message

        Violent, moody film is brooding, but good

        The Dark Knight's cover art and buzz should have warned viewers of its violent content, but some of it still shocked me. Much of it is completely inappropriate for some teens, but overall, it's ...

      • DVD: Juno

        I rate this titleiffyand give it5.0
        My concerns are:
        • Inappropriate sexual content

        • My highlights are:
        • Good role models

        One of my favorite movies of all time - a must-see

        Ellen Page stars in this moving dramedy about a teenage pregnancy. Naturally, the sexual behavior in this movie is a little iffy; but the only on-screen show is when she becomes pregnant, during ...

      • DVD: 21

        I rate this titleonand give it5.0
        My concerns are:
        • Excessive consumerism
        • Drinking, smoking, or drug use

        • My highlights are:
        • Good role models

        Fun, fast-paced film about winning and losing big

        Some of the main actors, such as Jim Sturgess and Kate Bosworth, will appeal to younger audiences, but perhaps think twice before taking your younger teens to this Vegas film. It's fun and it's ...

      • Movie: The Hangover

        I rate this titleiffyand give it5.0
        My concerns are:
        • Inappropriate sexual content
        • Inappropriate language
        • Drinking, smoking, or drug use

          Great for older teens, an actually funny movie

          While The Hangover looks like just another dumb adult comedy, this one proved to be that a little bit more. Although the movie does revolve around alcohol abuse, it also shows the consequences of it, ...

        • DVD: The Proposal

          I rate this titleonand give it4.0
          My concerns are:
          • Inappropriate sexual content

            Predictable romcom; but still worth seeing

            When walking into the theater to see The Proposal, you pretty much know what to expect - the two main characters (Reynolds and Bullock) have to pretend to be in love, there's a conflict, then they ...
