'CAUGHT STEALING'

Rated R for strong violent content, pervasive language, some sexuality/nudity and brief drug use.

What it’s about: A Manhattan bartender gets caught up in a drug deal/money grab and suffers the consequences.

The kid attractor factor: This is an adult crime caper, not much appeal for kids.

Good lessons/bad lessons: If you can't do anything else, save the cat.

Violence: Extreme bloody violence throughout: shootings, beatings, torture.

Language: Swearing throughout.

Sex: A sex scene, some brief nudity.

Drugs: On-screen cocaine use and references to drug trafficking.

Parents’ advisory: Too violent for kids! For older teens and adults only.

'THE ROSES'

 

Rated R for language throughout, sexual content, and drug content.

What it’s about: A married couple banter until it becomes resentment, then go to war over their house in the divorce.

The kid attractor factor: This is a relationship black comedy. Not much appeal for kids.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Is all the biting and backstabbing ever worth it?

Violence: A climactic fight scene/gun battle.

Language: Swearing throughout.

Sex: A couple of sex scenes, no nudity, and references to sex.

Drugs: On-screen marijuana use.

Parents’ advisory: Too mature for kids, but OK for teens if they are interested.
