"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Sneakers | 1992 | PG-13 | - 2.4.3
Robert Redford stars as a security expert, who, with his team (Sidney Poitier, Dan Aykroyd, David Strathairn, River Phoenix and Mary McDonnell) try to steal a mysterious black box by infiltrating Ben Kingsley's super-duper office complex.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - One scene of a couple kissing passionately, complete with groaning, the woman tears open her blouse to reveal a lace bra. This is all seen through a camera.
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - Punching and kicking and knocking over the head. Very little blood is actually shown. Two men are shot, we just see one fall, the other is in a car.
LANGUAGE 3 - Occasional use of foul language.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Computer crimes, organized crime, jabs at the Republican party.
MESSAGE - Dreams of changing the world when you were young are just dreams. It's OK to run away from something bad you may have done; but it will always come back to haunt you.
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.
