Just saw it this weekend with our almost 14 year old daughter. There were a couple of scenes that made me uncomfortable and I wanted to get up and leave, but while racy, the scenes didn't get explicit. It had a PG13 rating, but it should have had a higher rating.

I though John Lithgow made a better preacher in the original, but it kept to the original script, except the car crash that killed the kids and caused the town to ban music was shown in the remake. I swear the kid that played the non-dancing townie friend of Ren was a clone of the original actor.

Loved the dance moves and of course the title song.

When we left the theater, there were a group of kids standing around a car with "Footloose" blaring on the radio!
