Most helpful movie review

This app is the most reliable and useful tool for movie reviews. Highly recommended for every family concerned about the media influence and protecting your family.

Great for families!

We really love this app for when I'm looking for reviews of shows and movies for my three little ones. My eldest actually is very sensitive to violence and will have nightmares, so this app tells me if exactly what's in the movie.
