“ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: THE ROAD CHIP”

Rating: PG for some mild rude humor and language.

What it’s about: Everyone’s favorite singing chipmunks hit the road to Miami to break up their dad’s engagement.

The kid-attractor factor: The animated chipmunks, Top 40 tunes and kid-friendly humor.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Communication is key, learn to love your enemy, always stick together and stick up for each other.

Violence: The chipmunks get into some scraps with the son of their dad’s new girlfriend and encounter an angry air marshal, but nothing too extreme. Theodore gets hit by a car, but is fine.

Language: Just some crude fart jokes and other bodily rude humor.

Sexuality: Miles develops a crush, dad Dave has a new girlfriend, but it’s very tame.

Drugs: Only a wild night drinking on the part of the air marshal.

Parents advisory: This is fine for kids of all ages. Might be a bit too wild for the youngest ones.

“SISTERS”

Rating: R for crude sexual content and language throughout, and for drug use.

What it’s about: Two adult sisters return home to pack up their belongings when their parents sell their house, and decide to throw one last party.

The kid-attractor factor: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are beloved comedy stars.

Good lessons/bad lessons: There are times to grow up and take responsibility, and there are times to loosen up, have fun and not be such a control freak. Ultimately, family and taking care of each other is the most important thing.

Violence: The film culminates in a mud-wrestling scene between the sisters, next to a sinkhole of their own creation. Their friend Alex goes on a wild and violent drug bender.

Language: Lots of it! This is a potty-mouthed hard R with lots of swearing.

Sexuality: Plenty of humorous sex talk. No graphic nudity.

Drugs: John Cena plays a drug dealer.

Parents advisory: This would be OK for most teens — the sex and drug talk isn’t anything they haven’t heard before and is played for laughs. Definitely not OK for kids.
