'BLACK ADAM'
Rated PG-13 for sequences of strong violence, intense action and some language.
What it’s about: There will be a change in the hierarchy of the DC Comics universe ... when the new supercharged champion Black Adam is woken up from his 5,000-year slumber and tangles with the Justice Society league of superheroes.
The kid attractor factor: It's a superhero movie: flying men in tights, for the kids, or the kid inside.
Good lessons/bad lessons: Damage can bring darkness, but also the power to fight evil.
Violence: A lot! Shooting, smashing, dismembering, massive infrastructural damage, zombies, a fire demon from hell, etc. This really pushes the PG-13 violence.
Language: Some swearing.
Sex: None
Drugs: None
Parents’ advisory: Pretty violent — this is for older kids and teens only.

'TICKET TO PARADISE'
Rated PG-13 for some strong language and brief suggestive material.
What it’s about: George Clooney and Julia Roberts reunite on screen as acrimoniously divorced parents who head to Bali to break up their daughter's wedding.
The kid attractor factor: This rom-com might be appealing for some teens, but this is more for adults.
Good lessons/bad lessons: Don't let your damage get in the way of other's dreams.
Violence: None
Language: Some swearing.
Sex: Some references to sex but nothing graphic.
Drugs: None
Parents’ advisory: Pretty tame — this is OK for kids and teens.
