"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temorary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
--Benjamin Franklin

"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." -- H.L. Mencken

I think that my rating criteria are fairly obvious, but might note that my conception of what is unsuitable for children is less about whether there is any sexual content than about whether they are likely to understand and be able to sit still through the movie I'm reviewing.
