Parents' Guide

The Baltimore Sun

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Rating -- PG-13

The Kid Attractor Factor -- It's Harry Potter's fifth movie. The gang's all here.

Good lessons/bad lessons -- "What's life without a little risk?" And "School is not like real life."

Violence -- A death, a bloody assault.

Language -- "Bloody" this and "bloody" that.

Sex -- A pretty serious bit of snogging (a long, wet kiss).

Drugs -- Potions, the usual.

Parents' advisory -- The darkest of the Harry Potter films doesn't have a lot of light moments, but it is also, mercifully, the shortest -- certainly OK for 9 and older.
