'DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE'

Rated R for strong bloody violence and language throughout, gore and sexual references.

What it’s about: Irascible potty-mouthed superhero Deadpool teams up with stoic Wolverine in a farewell salute to 20th Century Fox's Marvel era (as produced by Disney).

The kid attractor factor: Teens will definitely be drawn to the comic book/superhero antics.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Nothing is worth it without good friends.

Violence: Cartoonishly extreme bloody violence throughout.

Language: Extreme swearing throughout.

Sex: Many, many references to graphic sex.

Drugs: Many references to cocaine use.

Parents’ advisory: This one is too naughty and graphic for kids. Fine for teens.

'DIDI'

Rated R for language throughout, sexual material, and drug and alcohol use — all involving teens.

What it’s about: A coming-of-age story about a Taiwanese American teenager growing up in Fremont, California, in 2008.

The kid attractor factor: This is more of an indie drama and not much appeal for kids, but perhaps for the audience who might be going through a similar life transition (teens) there will be interest.

Good lessons/bad lessons: It's hard trying to be your authentic self in the world, especially as a teenager.

Violence: Some harmless pranks, pratfalls, sibling fights and skateboard mishaps.

Language: Swearing throughout.

Sex: Teen references to sex.

Drugs: Teenage drinking and drug use, including marijuana and cocaine.

Parents’ advisory: Fine for teens and older kids as long as they can handle the swearing, drinking and drugs on screen.
