Know before you go: A sampling of movie review resources for people of faith
PluggedIn.com : This website, published by Focus on the Family, gives nuanced reviews as well as descriptions of questionable sexual, spiritual, language, violent and drug and alcohol content. The site also reviews video games and music.
MovieGuide.org : In addition to reviews that rate language, violence, nudity and sex on a scale of “none” to “heavy,” this site has articles about trends in the film industry.
Kids-In-Mind.com : This site aims to give objective information — not recommendations — so its content analysis of films contains detailed information about sex and nudity, violence and gore, profanity and substance use. Each analysis also includes discussion of possible messages behind films.
Dove.org : No, this website has nothing to do with soap. The Dove Foundation reviews films in theaters — and many lesser-known Christian films that go straight to DVD — as well as children’s books. The site posts exclusive interviews with cast and crew members from Christian films.
