To Watch or Not to Watch
Just wanted to pass along a neat website that I ran across yesterday. We were looking for a movie to watch, and I was interested in why a few movies were rated the way they were rated. This website www.kids-in-mind.com gives very detailed descriptions of occurences of sex & nudity, violence & gore, and profanity in movies. It rates the movie in each of these three areas on a scale of 1-10, with a 10 meaning that it is very prevalent. Anyway, I spent a few minutes looking up some movies, and then I discovered that you can also search for movies based on your criteria for cleanliness. For example, you can say that you are looking for a movie that is a 3 or less in sex & nudity, a 4 or less in violence & gore, and a 2 or less in profanity. It will then pull up all of the movies (in their database) with those numbers. Pretty cool! I thought it would be especially helpful with kids. So, check it out!
