Movie & TV reviews for parents

Features & Capabilities

Common Sense Media is the essential family review guide for what kids are into -- movies, TV shows, games, apps, podcasts, and more. This extension helps parents assess age-appropriateness and positive messages with filters for streaming services, your kid's age and interests, and family preferences, plus insights from other parents and kids in our community reviews.

Independent nonprofit status ensures ratings are not influenced by product creators or funders. Explore hand-curated collections, create your own watch and read lists, and filter content that is not right for your family, making movie nights safer and smarter.

User Reviews

Common Sense Media is praised as a thorough, parent-focused tool that clearly labels age-appropriateness, offers both kid and adult reviews, and provides in-depth insights that save time. Many users rely on it to guide decisions and conversations about what to watch or read. However, a recurring issue is access being gated behind a subscription, with free content being limited and some features effectively unusable without paying. Reported login and purchase-verification problems, password resets, and frustration over cost contribute to mixed satisfaction. When the service works, it's valuable; when not, users feel it’s overpriced or unreliable.

Pros

Provides clear content warnings and age-appropriateness for movies and TV shows.
Shows both kid and adult reviews and breaks down ratings by category for informed decisions.
Offers in-depth insights, synopses, and recommended alternatives.
Valuable parent-focused resource that helps with conversations and safety.

Cons

Access heavily gated by subscription; free content limited or unavailable.
Login and purchase verification problems; accounts not recognized after payment; locked out.
Frequent login/password prompts and friction; password resets needed.
Perceived high price or paywall focus; many feel it's not worth the cost for limited access.

Recent reviews

Love being able to know exactly what to expect from movies and tv shows as far as sex, violence and whether it’s any good.

This is basically a paid app. Unusable without a subscription. The app is nice from what I could tell. Just use IMDB for free…

I paid for an annual subscription and the app never recognized the purchase so would never let me have the perks as if I had fhe paid for subscription and I still had to pay for the subscription as I paid for the annual subscription. Just horrible….
