  • DVD: Legends of the Fall

    I rate this titleiffyand give it3.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence
    • Inappropriate sexual content
    • Negative message
    • Negative role models

      Good movie.. didn't really represent the time period too well though. It was very depressing, but it had some interesting topics.

    • Movie: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

      I rate this titleonand give it4.0

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

        One of the better Harry Potter films

        The newest installment in the Harry Potter film series was excellent! Yes, the movie did leave out lots of things I would have liked to see, but that happens with every book-made-movie. The special ...

      • DVD: Can't Buy Me Love

        I rate this titleonand give it4.0
        My concerns are:
        • Drinking, smoking, or drug use

          Cute

          I thought it was a cute movie. It taught a good lesson.

        • DVD: I Love You, Beth Cooper

          I rate this titleiffyand give it1.0
          My concerns are:
          • Inappropriate sexual content
          • Drinking, smoking, or drug use

            YUCK!

            I really hated this movie. I went with my friend who is the same age as I am and my brother who is 13. The sexual content was a little strong for a PG-13 and there were a lot of thing I wish my ...

          • DVD: Mad Money

            I rate this titleiffyand give it3.0
            My concerns are:
            • Negative message
            • Negative role models

              Great for a girls' night in!

              If you're a parent reading this review trying to decide whether it is good for your teen, ask yourself this: Does my child know right from wrong? If the answer is no, then it's probably a good idea ...

            • DVD: My Sister's Keeper

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

                Book was better, but the movie still did the job!

                I read the book My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult and loved it. I always go into the theater of a book-made-movie trying to let go of any exceptations I have about the movie matching up to the book. ...

              • DVD: Gran Torino

                I rate this titleiffyand give it4.0
                My concerns are:
                • Inappropriate language
                • Negative message

                  Interesting.. Good plot

                  Gran Torino was a very intersting movie. It felt like it was shot as a home-video type film and it didn't have the mainstream feel that a lot of movies do. The previews really weren't able to ...

                • DVD: The Proposal

                  I rate this titleiffyand give it4.0
                  My concerns are:
                  • Inappropriate sexual content
                  • Negative message

                    Cute rom-com

                    I've seen so many rom-coms and I expected this one to be the same. It was and it wasn't. It was because it had the guy and the girl fall for each other against all odds. It wasn't because the way ...

                  • DVD: Up

                    I rate this titleonand give it5.0

                      • My highlights are:
                      • Positive messages

                      Funny and clever!

                      I saw Up in 3-D and absolutely loved it! Disney/Pixar never disapoints so I expected this to be good, and of course it was! Its appropriate and fun for any age because the plot is easy for kids to ...

                    • DVD: Knowing

                      I rate this titleonand give it3.0
                      My concerns are:
                      • Drinking, smoking, or drug use

                        Make up your mind!

                        I went into the movie theater thinking that Knowing was an action/sci-fi movie. It turned out, the makers of this film couldn't decide WHAT they wanted Knowing to be: action, horror, or sci-fi. The ...

                      • DVD: Tropic Thunder

                        I rate this titleoffand give it2.0

                        Once is enough for me!

                        I saw this movie with my cousins and although it had some extremely funny parts, the humor mostly was very crude. I like intelligent humor, so if you're like me, then this movie might not be the one ...

                      • DVD: Freedom Writers

                        I rate this titleonand give it4.0

                        Inspirational

                        Freedom Writers was a very attention-grabbing film. It made me realize how lucky I was to not have to worry about being shot the moment I stepped out my front door. In the beginning of the movie, I ...
