So he grabbed the purple pen, turned the poster paper over, and was about to write another message to the man, when the purple ink began to leak all over his paws and fur. Positive—My husband and I are very cautious about what we let our children watch, and previewed this and talked to our children before we decided to let them see it. Adam Sandler movies are often filled with innuendos and cussing. I was pleasantly surprised, though. Bedtime Stories is the only one of his we have granted our children (9-12) permission to see, and I’m so grateful Sandler took the initiative to make a movie like this.The fact that we went to the movie with a group of 11 family members for the Holidays made it a bit difficult to walk out, but even our daughter wanted to leave at one point.
