"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
The Arrival | 1996 | PG-13 | - 3.4.5
Charlie Sheen discovers an alien conspiracy to take over the Earth.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Sheen is obviously naked, but his private parts are hidden. A woman jumps out of a bathtub and she's naked, but she hides herself with her arms and hence nothing is really visible. Hugs and kisses and some sexual talk and innuendo.
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - Several chases, scuffles and fights, with a little blood, and a few cuts and bruises. A woman's corpse is shown: her face is badly battered and bruised. A couple of people are killed, but there's little gore. A frozen man's arm snaps off. Scorpions are let loose in a room and they look pretty scary.
LANGUAGE 5 - A couple of F-words, some scatological terms.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Extraterrestrial life, the Greenhouse effect and pollution.
MESSAGE - Being paranoid doesn't mean they are not really after you. We're destroying the Earth with our factories and technology.
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
