I think a few comments have alredy been offered by others. I dont have kids but several close friends and business associates do. The rules I see them go by include:1. Skew towards studios that focus more on family entertainment - that usually means Disney. As you say, not always a guarantee, but its a start.
2. Skew towards G & PG films. Hey, but you do that already.
3. If in doubt prescreen the movie yourself. I know LOTS of folks who do this. The first time I heard of it I was a bit surprised but since, I've stumbled across a lot of folks who do.
4. Network with friends with kids to get the scoop on new releases they or other like minded people may have seen. Resist the temptation to go to the movie the opening week.
5. I'm sure there has to be a review site on the web that focuses on family value type pics (lord knows there is a site somewhere on any topic you care to mention) run some searches and see what you come up with.
Hey, I dont know all the answers but I can understand the dilemma. This is just a bit of what I've seen work for my friends.
--BTW, I learned that if you discover within a reasonable time that the film is unsuitable for you or your party and you wish to leave, the theater will refund your money or give you passes to another show. I think this is a fair way of treating customers.---
Absolutely. I find they will refund if you just walk out complaining you think its not a good movie and ask for a refund.
