Comments on Why Pay Premium Cinema Prices...

Well. I'm definitely not going to take my 7 y/o niece to see Zombie Strippers now.

Two women kiss, and one says, "I love you" and "take me"; they then move to the floor, off-screen, and we hear crunching.

From Pulp Fiction "there are several very explicit discussions of sex, and, most importantly, a man is shown being raped by another man"

Well I'm glad that they at least see the importance of man on man rape!

Some of the interpretations of scenes of JUNO are hilariously off-base. The slow dance WAS VERY SEXUAL!

Wonderful summary of Expelled:

MESSAGE - Science is evil. Darwin's Theory of Evolution made the Holocaust possible.

The Christian Science Monitor has been listing the moral issues in their movie reviews all along. Except for their daily article on Christian Science which you can (and should) ignore, it is the best paper out there.

Those "final messages" sound like they were written by the same people who create the hilariously meaningless English-language t-shirts in Japan.

Thanks, Mark at 6, but KidsinMind doesn't deal with "moral" issues--it explicitly avoids moralizing. (For instance, they don't say lesbian zombie cannibal sex is wrong, just that it exists in Zombie Strippers.)

What, no sample commentary on Showgirls?

Under substance use in Baby Mama: "Woman is seen taking large vitamin". My mamma encourages my vitamin use. Enabler.

Is it possible that you are not familiar with the long-standing "screenit.com" site?

@8 I apologize for plopping "Sex/Nudity, Violence/Gore, Profanity, and Substance Use" under the simple catch-all name of "moral issues". The CSM also simply enumerates these in the review and allows you to determine for yourself if they are "moral" issues. They don't moralize either. The fact remains that these events are counted and enumerated so that people with "moral" hangups can make a decisions on whether to see a movie or not and who to bring. They aren't counting the number of time each says "the" after all.

And if you -really- want comedy, try CapAlert, the ">ChildCare Action Project: Christian Analysis of American Culture.

Doh. Sorry about that malformed URL. Hope I didn't break the SLOG. I meant to preview it, not post it.

Y'all need to back off. This site is fantastic. The summaries are balanced, evenhanded, and non-judgmental.

If I had a kid who wanted to see Good Luck Chuck I'd much rather know there's a scene where "A man enters a room where another man who is nude and in profile is masturbating with a grapefruit and then talking about using a brush to stimulate his prostate" without having to actually watch Good Luck Chuck.

the review for eyes wide shut is amazing, the best part being the final message.

The description of Kinsey reads like a long, thorough textbook of scandalous things. I haven't read 1920's erotica written for flappers, but I imagine it to be roughly like the summary for Kinsey.
