funny for parents, inappropriate for kids

I'm a nanny and I took the little boy I work with to see this. Within the first 30 minutes they use the word 'crap' twice. The movie is also riddled with suggestive language... the love interests of the movie talking about 'showering with eachother' and one character making inuendos about 'polishing his ladies.' Overall, it's not a bad movie... and actually, I found it slightly entertaining. I just think it's inappropriate for children under the age of 10. In addition to inappropriate language, it also included more than one reference to death and went in depth about touchy family issues. I'm 22... there is nothing in the subject matter of this movie that made me uncomfortable... it was the fact that I had a young, impressionable mind next to me that I'm responsible for when his parents aren't around. I had their OK to take him to the movie, but I'm sure if they had seen it first they would have felt differently. I guess my biggest suggestion is that you see the movie before you take your child and make sure that you're not uncomfortable with exposing them to this movie. It's much safer than having a car ride home like i did, discussing family issues, death, and how it's not ok to use the word 'crap', to tell people to 'shut up' or to 'get off their lazy butts'. |
