Parents tell me they are frustrated by the vague ratings system. Newspapers, including The Eagle, give more information, but parents who want extensive information about the content and age appropriateness of films often turn to Internet sites that give details on the details. This site can be almost overwhelming in the level of detail it offers. Earlier this year, reviews were accompanied by Scriptural references that related to themes in the films. Current reviews I checked have omitted this information.
