Indivisible | 2018 | PG-13 | – 1.5.1
Why is “Indivisible” rated PG-13? The MPAA rating has been assigned for “some thematic material and war violence.” The Kids-In-Mind.com evaluation includes military action, a few stressful encounters with gunmen that end in the death and wounding of soldiers and a child, and a few instances of name-calling. Read our parents’ guide below for details on sexual content, violence & strong language.”
Based on the true story of an Army Chaplain (Justin Bruening) that was deployed with infantry members to Iraq in 2007: When he returns to his wife and family after 15 months he is a changed man, questioning his faith, and to re-build his relationships requires him to be able to ask for help.

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.
