[Laurabearz]

The description says crude humor.... how crude? It is rated PG, but I need a bit more information on the crudeness before making my final desision to take the kids....

I know somewhere there is a 'watchdog' site that lists all the offending things that movies contain... anyone have that link???

Thanks bunches!

There is mild potty humor (like a few flatulence and other body function jokes, an early mucus gag, bad teeth, men wearing stetchy pants etc). But I was actually pretty surprised there wasn't more considering the rating.

I saw it late at night, so there weren't that many kids in out theater, but the few who were there (maybe between 10-13) seemed to really like it.

I, personally, loved it. And like Napolean dynamite, a lot of the humor is kind of subtle. A particular look, a shoe flying off, some understated one liners. I also find it more funny the more I think about it (like Napolean dynamite.) I also found myself laughing when other people weren't....so maybe I'm just really strange

P.S. Here's an on-line review that goes into detail...but will also spoil some things

www.moviemom.com is a good source to see what age the movie is appropriate for

My DD, 8 and DH haven't stopped quoting it since we saw it 2 weeks ago. It's getting pretty old!!

They both loved it. I thought it was ok.

As the other poster said, it was pretty much potty humour. The parts that were funny, were funny. I thought the rest of it dragged a bit. Just my opinion though, the other 2 loved it.

It was a lot better than Napoleon Dynamite, but that doesn't make it that great. Better than a lot of movies out right now though.

The humor is low brow but I'm sure your children see the same type of humor on Nick every day.

We loved it, my 10 year old nephew, and 13 DD and 16 DS loved it. We too are quoting silly lines. There was no nudity or really bad profanity, but it was cute. Mostly as one other poster said, I was actually pretty surprised there wasn't more considering the rating
