    Spectre-Teen Movie Review

    Bond. James Bond…he’s back and better than ever. In this film Bond (Daniel Craig) ends up in Mexico City and Rome. After entering a secret meeting, he discovers the existence of an evil organization called Spectre. As Bond learns about the group, he also finds a connection between himself and their cruel leader (Christoph Waltz). Spectre is an action packed adventurous film with 007’s cars,  guns, and gadgets. It’s all about Bond. James Bond.

    Talking Points:

    • Though Spectre is very violent, and disturbing in parts, Bond seems very different. He falls in love, and  treats woman with a more respect. There are times in the film when he could kill, though he chooses not to.

    Sexual Content: Moderate

    • James Bond sleeps with a newly widowed woman. We see them passionately kiss, then bond unzips her dress. Later we see her on the bed in a negligee.
    • James sleeps with another woman as well, a love interest. We see them passionately kiss as Bond rips off her clothes (we don’t see anything). Later she’s shown wearing a sexy nightgown.

    Violent/Disturbing Content: Excessive

    • The villain drills holes into James’ head, James screams in agony. This was a very disturbing scene.
    • We see a lot of characters shot and killed. There are several explosions as cars, planes and buildings blow up.
    • There are numerous brutal fights, with very graphic images. In one scene a man gouges out another mans eyes with his thumbs… killing him. There’s a violent fight on a train with characters thrown around, beaten and shot.

    Crude or Profane Language: Moderate

    • We hear “a–,” “b–tard,” and “h—.”

    Drug and Alcohol Content: Mild

    • Bond orders his usual drink…vodka martini.
    • We see characters drinking beer, wine and champagne. One character is shown tipsy and tells Bond that she can see two of him.

    Will Teens Teens It? Yes

    Overall Spectre is an action packed movie, one that teenagers will enjoy. Parents need to be aware of the excessive and disturbing violence throughout the film. Depending on the child I recommend this for kids ages 15 and up.
