FURIOUS 7 | FAMILY MOVIE REVIEW INFORMATION FOR PARENTS AND KIDS

"FURIOUS 7"
(2015) (Vin Diesel, Paul Walker) (PG-13)

QUICK TAKE:: Action: A team of criminal thrill junkies must reassemble when the ruthless brother of a former nemesis targets them all for death.

PLOT:

Deckard Shaw (JASON STATHAM), a trained British special forces assassin, vows revenge on those responsible for his criminal brother being on life support. His target is Dominic Toretto (VIN DIESEL), an ex-con who has formed a crew of car junkies/master thieves over the years that has become something of a surrogate family. They include his brother-in-law, Brian (PAUL WALKER), a former cop turned criminal; Dom's sister and Brian's wife, Mia (JORDANA BREWSTER); Dom's amnesiac wife, Letty (MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ); computer whiz Tej (LUDACRIS); and show-boating thrill seeker, Roman (TYRESE GIBSON).

When Deckard proves relentless, Dom is recruited by an enigmatic black operative who calls himself Mr. Nobody (KURT RUSSELL) to rescue a kidnapped computer hacker named Ramsey (NATHALIE EMMANUEL), who has invented a software program that can literally track and find anyone on the planet within a matter of minutes ... even seconds. She is being held prisoner in Azerbaijan by a terrorist named Jakande (DJIMON HOUNSOU) and his chief henchman, Kiet (TONY JAA).

Dom also receives help from FBI agent Hobbs (DWAYNE "THE ROCK" JOHNSON), a one-time nemesis who has come to respect Dom and his crew. Hobbs is gravely wounded early on and confined to a hospital bed. But when the action moves to Abu Dhabi and then back to Los Angeles, he can no longer lie still and not get involved.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?: Yes. Teens, both male and female, will be eager to check this out, especially if they're fans of any of the earlier entries in this film franchise.

WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: PG-13: For prolonged frenetic sequences of violence, action, and mayhem; suggestive content; and brief strong language.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
