'THE DISASTER ARTIST'
Rated R for language throughout and some sexuality/nudity.
What it's about: The tale of the making of "The Room," the cult movie that might be the worst movie ever.
The kid attractor factor: Stars James and Dave Franco and the comedic genre will draw teens.

Violence: None.
Language: Swearing and strong language throughout.
Sexuality: Graphic male nudity while filming a sex scene.
Drugs: None.
Parents advisory: This quirky comedy does have some nudity and swearing, but it's played for laughs _ it's fine for teens, not kids.
'THE SHAPE OF WATER'
Rated R for sexual content, graphic nudity, violence and language.
What it's about: A mute woman falls in love with a mysterious amphibian man in a Cold War-era government facility.

Language: Strong language throughout.
Sexuality: Graphic female and male nudity, masturbation, a few graphic sex scenes and references to sex.
