Family guide to new movie releases

"BAYWATCH"

Rated R for language throughout, crude sexual content, and graphic nudity.

What it's about: A big screen, bombastic take on the cheesy '90s show about sexy lifeguards.

The kid attractor factor: Stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Zac Efron will draw younger audiences and the raunchy action-comedy genre will be attractive to teens.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Teamwork makes the dream work!

Violence: Several high-stakes water rescues, including a boat on fire and explosions, shootings, chases, fisticuffs, near drownings, a death by fireworks.

Language: Strong language and swearing throughout.

Sexuality: Several suggestive scenes discussing sex and sexy bodies. Graphic male nudity.

Drugs: The appearance of drugs on the beach sets the plot in motion, and some girls are referred to as high. Some drinking.

Parents advisory: This is fine for teens but too raunchy for kid audiences.
