The Family Movie Guide should be used along with the Motion Picture Association of America rating system for selecting movies suitable for children. Only films rated G, PG or PG-13 are included in this weekly listing, along with occasional R-rated films that may have entertainment or educational value for older children with parental guidance. Compiled by St. Petersburg Times film critic Steve Persall.

(PG) - Only a few mild profanities in this feel-good movie about a trainer (Kurt Russell), his daughter (Dakota Fanning) and an overachieving horse. Otherwise, it's safe for all ages.

(PG) - Nothing objectionable and plenty inspirational about the fact-based story of Frances Ouimet (Shia LaBeouf), a surprising 20-year-old contender in the 1913 U.S. Open golf tournament. Brief profanity.

(PG) - The romantic heat generated by Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones shouldn't bother parents, and the action violence is silly enough to be laughed away.

(G) - The long-awaited feature-length adventure about a meek inventor and his intrepid dog is wonderful for all ages. The animation is clever, the jokes are silly in a smart way, and a few mildly suggestive sight gags won't offend.

(PG) - Many children loved Tim Burton's macabre sense of humor in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. This stop-motion animation effort includes scarier images of decomposed bodies and icky action, so viewers younger than 10 may require parental reassurance before bedtime.

(PG-13) - Jodie Foster plays a mother whose daughter disappears on an airliner, if the girl was alive upon departure in the first place. That perilous theme could upset children, and the violence and tension level is definitely geared for grownups.

(PG) - A provocative recording artist rediscovers his religious faith when his father, a clergyman, falls ill. The temptations causing his backslide are handled tastefully, but there are still suggestive material and profanity.

(PG-13) - Young viewers will be attracted by the youthful cast, including pop singer Bow Wow, and the roller-skating angle. But the nostalgic 1970s setting, including songs from the era, may be too quaint for their tastes. The film includes crude language, sexual suggestiveness and brief drug references.

(PG-13) - An odd Jewish man (Elijah Wood) traces his grandfather's personal Holocaust history. The trail leads him to sexual encounters and violent memories, assisted by a pair of humorously profane guides. Teenagers may appreciate the film's cockeyed outlook, but children will likely be bored.

(PG-13) - Youth market favorites Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst co-star in a coming home comedy-drama of love and death. Those mature themes are explored by writer-director Cameron Crowe with middling results. Moderate profanity, some sexual references.

(PG-13) - Remake of John Carpenter's 1980 ghost story, slightly less gory. The film still contains violence, disturbing images and brief sexuality.

(PG) Although the profanity is minor and there's no sex or violence in George Clooney's film, the fact-based drama is rife with mature political themes that can make younger viewers impatient. The black-and-white cinematography and lack of physical action won't help. Save this fine film for teenagers seeking a civics lesson.

(PG-13) - A party girl (Cameron Diaz) and her uptight sister (Toni Collette) deal with sexual issues, substance abuse and an estranged grandmother (Shirley MacLaine). Sensuality and frank dialogue about mature themes plus strong profanity equal nothing for children.

(PG-13) - Paul Walker and Jessica Alba's MTV credibility makes this appealing to young viewers. However, the MPAA rating is the result of intense action violence, drug material, sexual content and profanity, not to mention all that skimpy swimwear.
