Bring It On

Movie · 2000

This high-energy cheerleading comedy is squarely aimed at older teens, with a steady stream of crude sexual humor, vulgar language including homophobic slurs, and suggestive situations throughout. The sport itself is exciting and the story carries real themes of honesty and fairness, but the surrounding content is firmly PG-13 territory.

Confident teens aged 13 and up who can handle frank language and sexual humor in a high-school comedy setting.
