Also with Jonathan Hyde, Kirsten Dunst, Bradley Pierce, Bonnie Hunt, Bebe Neuwirth, David Alan Grier, Patricia Clarkson, Adam Hann-Byrd, Laura Bundy, James Handy, Gillian Barber, Brandon Obray, Cyrus Theideke and Gary Joseph Thorup. [1:44]
SEX/NUDITY 1 - One chaste kiss between two kids.
advertisement
VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - A man keeps shooting at people with a gun. Jungle animals (lions, alligators, etc.) and weird plants almost eat a group of people; a monsoon and flood almost drown them. Kids beat up another kid, who gets a bloody lip and black eyes. Reckless driving; people almost get hit a few times. An animal stampede and a human screaming stampede.
LANGUAGE 3 - One garbled word that might be an F-word combined with "you" (it's hard to make out, on purpose) and one mild obscenity.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Wild animals, the jungle.
MESSAGE - Face your fears.
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.
Mufasa: The Lion King - 1.4.2
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 - 1.3.3
The Piano Lesson - 3.5.4
Homestead - 1.5.4
