"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Encino Man | 1992 | PG | - 3.1.1
Pauly Shore, as a high-school neo-hippie loser, and Sean Astin as his nerdy pal, find a frozen Cro-Magnon man (Brendan Fraser) while they're digging a big hole in their backyard.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - None to speak of. A scantily clad model in a poster in a boys closet. The caveman is shown in his native attire, a loin cloth. Some french kissing is shown, but nothing passionate.
VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - Some bullying, shoving and punching, but no blood is spilled.
LANGUAGE 1 - Some name calling, most of which is in "Pauly Speak," no real profanity.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Like, get real?
MESSAGE - Never use people for what you can get out of them, being a friend is more important and will get you much farther. Being cool is not important, it's more important to be comfortable with who you are.
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.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare - 5.7.5
Abigail - 1.9.10
Sasquatch Sunset - 8.7.0
Sting - 1.7.7
