We are so grateful for your support!

For example, in Germany, violence has the role sex and nudity does in American films, especially in terms of strong ratings and seeking to protect children from it.

A movie like The Lives of Others, about the pervasiveness and sheer nightmare of what the Stasi did to East Germans in the Cold War, is incredibly valuable to watch especially for families and thoughtful teens in a society faced with technology and surveillance. However, many families will be put off by the fact (1) a juvenile but “elite” reviewer called it an erotic thriller – and that’s on the box, along with the couple in bed, but calling it that is BADLY missing the point and (2) there’s several scenes with actual nudity. But it has complex moral situations and has many extremely powerful and positive moral actions and messages of hope and meaning.

However, it diverges dramatically from how an American telling would go in that there’s virtually no violence save one tough scene, and in fact the extensive violence the wickedly-effective Stasi employed is implied in a way analogous to how many Hays Code era movies implied licit and illicit sexual situations. In fact, even the nudity and sexual situations are not gratuitous (as Hollywood rather likes to do) but either highlight shame and emptiness, violated intimacy, and guilt after psychological torment. Nonetheless, it’s not a film I feel comfortable showing to family or friends without warning.

Furthermore, as an attorney, I deeply appreciate the commitment this service appears to have towards following both the letter and the spirit of the law. I commend y’all and plan to use this service.

I would also appreciate this feature. The ability to default to PG-13 and R movie graphics not showing up while looking for content with my children would be great! Perhaps the ability to create separate kids accounts that block out content based on filter criteria and rating. All powerful tools to help protect loved ones until they are old enough to understand their choices. Just an idea to throw into the pool for future revisions. Thanks for the control you have given everyone.

I LOVE vidangel. I agree with Suki. We want to watch the movies out there but don’t want all the crap that comes with it. Thank you for making it possible to watch any movie and filter it to our personal desires. I’ve seen two movies on here in the past 3 days.. And I plan on always using this site from now on. Thank you!

It’s possible on the web, iOS and Android. Coming soon to other platforms

Movies like “The Exorcist” are based on real life historical events.

Unfortunately, people experience evil, and viewing a historical fiction of an evil event has value.

Block poster would be a huge selling point for my family
