"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Mousehunt | 1997 | PG | - 3.3.2
It's a live-action comedy in the tradition of "Tom & Jerry," with 2 humans versus an adorable little mouse.
SEX/NUDITY 3 - Sexual innuendo. A man puts his hand down a woman's blouse to catch a mouse. He keeps moving his hand around her bosom for a while and she seems to react positively. Another woman grabs another man's hand and puts it his down her own blouse. He also seems to react positively. A woman lies on a desk as her naked husband approaches (with a strategically placed ball of twine); obviously pre-coital but nothing else seen.
VIOLENCE/GORE 3 - Played for laughs, slapstick-type violence: falls, chases, objects falling and hitting people, scuffles, lots of property destruction. Two men hit each other with hammers, brooms, get snapped with mouse traps and accidentally set a woman's hair on fire. An obese man in a restaurant has a heart attack and dies. A cat walks through a field of mouse traps (off screen) and cries in agony as the traps cling to each foot.
LANGUAGE 2 - An anatomical reference, a few mild obscenities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Brothers and inheritance, property destruction, mice and cruelty towards animals.
MESSAGE - Live and let live.
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.
