"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Mallrats | 1995 | R | - 5.2.8
College kids battle love problems and friendship in the local mall.
SEX/NUDITY 5 - We see a man's bare buttocks and women's bare breasts. A topless fortune teller strokes and cuddles her breasts in an extended scene. We see a videotape of an obviously naked couple (although we see no nudity) presumably having anal sex. A man and woman kiss in an elevator; he is facing her with his pants around his ankles, and then she's on top of him (all brief, with nothing much seen). Many sexual references, sometimes obscene and graphic and some obscene sexual gestures.
VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - Some fistfights and some kicking (one resulting in a bloody nose). A character keeps falling and going through walls with his head.
LANGUAGE 8 - 25+ F-words, many scatological references, many mild obscenities, many anatomical references.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Falling in love and breaking up, parental control.
MESSAGE - Be true to yourself; don't let others sway your convictions.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
Gladiator II - 2.7.2
Wicked: Part I - 3.4.2
Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. - 1.5.3
Emilia Pérez - 6.6.7
