As you can see from the first sentence, it's a family friendly film.
Another review I once read somewhere about Alien. I’m paraphrasing here, but it was basically this:

Dumb men refuse to listen to smart woman. Dumb men die. Smart woman survives with cute cat.
This reminds me of an old thread on Rotten Tomatoes about wildly misleading movie synopses.

My favourite was Lethal Weapon: man discovers he is too old for this shit.

Indeed. A guy gets off using an oxygen tank.

Very topical.
Another appropriate first sentence of a Wikipedia article. Just like The Big Sleep:...uh, will get back to you on that one.

Or better yet, just read the Wikipedia summary for the films and consider that to be enough.
Read the first sentence and call it a day.

Yes, you can! We believe in you!
I'll try the old 'watch two movies on two separate screens at the same time'. That should speed things up.
