Child psychiatrists, youth counselors and even legal professionals don't have an answer either. But they all echo a common piece of advice: Know your child.
Get a load of this description of the silent kung-fu movie Red Heroine: "A marauding band of bandits/military men raid a town and kidnap a bunch of women and the main character, whose grandmother gets killed in the melee, but she's luckily rescued by the cliche of the gallant kung-fu hermit with a fake white beard and is taught military skills and is gone for a while, and then there's some intrigue between family and military men, and in the end the Red Heroine comes back, kicks a lot of ass, and pretty much saves the day. That's straight from the musician's mouth -- in this case the mouth of Jonah Rapino, a member of the musical trio Devil Music Ensemble, which is touring the country playing live music to accompany the rare 1929 action film. Red Heroine, the only surviving episode of ...

In stores GONE (2012, Summit, PG-13, $30) -- Amanda Seyfried stars as a former kidnap victim who's convinced that her missing sister has been snatched by the same nutjob who held her hostage years earlier. After Seyfried fails to convince the police of her suspicions, she sets out to rescue her sister herself. There's no subtlety to the picture; director Heitor Dhalia slams through scenes, doing little to shape the performances or finesse the action. Despite being forced to play one emotion (fear) throughout the movie, Seyfried works hard to pull you in. And she mostly succeeds. "Gone" is pure B- movie pulp, but it's just good enough to get the blood pumping. Extras: none.
