'HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON'

Rated PG for sequences of intense action, and peril.

What it’s about: A young Viking boy breaks with culture by befriending and training a dragon, Toothless.

The kid attractor factor: The kid-friendly action-adventure genre and familiarity with the books and animated series will appeal to kids.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Instead of fighting, see how you can learn, understand and work with one another.

Violence: Some sequences of fighting, danger, peril from dragons and humans.

Language: None

Sex: None

Drugs: None

Parents’ advisory: OK for kids of all ages but maybe a little scary for younger ones.

'MATERIALISTS'

 

Rated R for language and brief sexual material.

What it’s about: A New York City matchmaker juggles two love interests in her personal life.

The kid attractor factor: This is an adult romance, not necessarily for kids.

Good lessons/bad lessons: If you let your belief systems crumble, you never know what good things come your way.

Violence: None

Language: Some swearing.

Sex: A sex scene but no nudity or anything graphic.

Drugs: Smoking

Parents’ advisory: OK for teens if they're interested.
