Les Miserables

Rated: PG-13: suggestive and sexual material, violence, and thematic elements

 

   i recently saw this movie, and thought it was amazing! This film was also super sad and dramatic in many ways, it is hard not to cry. There is absolutely no talking, it is all just constant singing. This story is the story of  Jean Valjean, and how he dedicated his life to take care of  Cosette, the daughter of Fantine, a woman who was fired from her job and begins to become sick. He takes Fantine to a hospital, (spoiler!!!!!) where she dies in the bed, but before, she asked Jean to find her daughter and take care of her, after all, Jean in the Major, even though he started as a prisoner, number 24601. Cosette becomes rich, and falls in love with Marius, another rich man. Eponine is a woman who is poor, and loves Marius, although he dose not feel for her as she does for him. The French Revolution then comes- and so on( lives are lost, that sort of thing) This movie is a great movie.  i would give this  movie 10 of 10 thumbs up, and i think it's okay for ages 12 and up- due to many mature themes that are set in this depressing film.

Parental Guidance

 Rated: PG (of course) For some rude humor


















 Well, yesterday was Christmas, and Les Miserables was a choice of three,but this film was chosen. This film was about two parents who are very strict and "new school" They try to be the best parents. One day, they leave their kids with their parents and are known to be "old school", who have a sense of humor, and are not as strict in parenting, come, and the kids see a whole more fun side of life.It has many life lessons hidden in the script. This movie was okay. It did  have a lot of laugh scenes, but what was disappointing, was that this was not a Christmas film. *9 of 10 thumbs up* I think this movie is okay for ages 8 and up. ( mostly from the creepy SAW scenes ;)
