Family reviews: "Get Smart,' "The Love Guru'

"Get Smart'

Rating: PG-13 for some rude humor, action violence and language.

What it's about: Intelligence analyst Maxwell Smart realizes his dream to become a secret agent when he is sent, with lovely Agent 99, to find missing yellowcake uranium.

The Kid Attractor Factor: Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, Dwayne ”The Rock“ Johnson, all shooting and blowing stuff up.

Good lessons/bad lessons: ”Until we understand our enemies are also human beings, we cannot defeat them.“

Violence: Slapstick, a tiny bit of blood, and a staggering body count for a comedy.

Language: Reasonably clean.

Sex: ”Missed it by this much.“

Drugs: None.

Parents' advisory: The most benign of the big summer ­comedies, contentwise, aside from a prolonged trip to the toilet and the presence of The 40 Year-Old Virgin and Her Hotness, Anne Hathaway.

"The Love Guru'

Rating: PG-13 for crude and sexual content throughout, ­language, some comic violence and drug references.

What it's about: An American-born guru tries to crack the self-help racket by reconciling a star hockey player separated from his wife.

The Kid Attractor Factor: The voice of Shrek, Mike Myers, ­doing live-action puns and shtick, randy jokes, juvenile potty humor, the works.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Love yourself and others will love you, or ”Intimacy: Into ME, I SEE.“

Violence: Hockey breaks out from time to time.

Language: Some profanity.

Sex: Innuendo and chastity belt jokes and elephants ­reproducing and Jessica Alba.

Drugs: A pot joke.

Parents' advisory: If your kids have seen the Austin Powers movies, there's nothing here that will shock them, or you — it's a little naughty in that bawdy Brit-com tradition.
