For movies they review are Positive Content, Spiritual Content, Sexual Content, Violent Content, Crude or Profane Language, Drug & Alcohol Content, and other Negative Elements. Games, TV Shows, and Music are a little less detailed in their review but still give an honest, helpful evaluation.

Plugged In to what your Family is Watching
As parents we have a responsibility to know what our kids are hearing and seeing in the music, movies, television shows, and video games they encounter. Some things are a little easier to preview, but something like a movie costs a lot of money and time to check out before letting them. Our family likes to use the site Plugged In. It is run by Focus on the Family and gives you the whole run down on content.

I like the fact that on Fridays I can hear the Plugged In Movie Review on one of our local Christian radio stations. I'm typically cooking breakfast while listening to it, so that makes it easy to digest the "Cliff Notes" version without spending hours online. Currently, 600 U.S. stations carry this 1-2 minute weekly radio feature. I don't see a listing of stations on their website, so I guess you just have to check your local stations for whether they carry it.
