It's hard to see every film, but the reviews will be here

No, you're not wrong. In fact, I appreciate the details concerning a film's MPAA rating. It's especially disheartening (but inevitable, I suppose) to see the "PG-13" films creeping closer to "R"-rated territory.

I often check the Deseret News archive of movie reviews, to see if a "PG" or "soft PG-13" will be acceptable for my kids to watch.

So I, for one, appreciate the detailing of potentially offensive material.

I appreciate your efforts too. It gives me fair warning of what to expect in a PG-13 movie.

I agree with Bat5 and Chris F. Mr. Vice's efforts give me the information I need to decide as to whether I want to see the film or not. And, as my children get older, I will most certainly use his details to determine whether my children can see a certain film or not.
