The Great Race is on Tubi. Jack Lemmon, Peter Falk, Tony Curtis, and Natalie Wood star in a fun slap-stick comedy.

appreciate your honesty. As a father, I would highly recommend you start to “flex” quite a bit more for your son’s sake. It’s your responsibility to raise him into a man. Don’t let your wife control your son.
Oh brother

The generation that fought and died in WWII would have never ever heard a cuss word on tv or seen a man and woman share a bed. I think his kid can become a man just fine without seeing graphic content from movies or tv….

Anyway my first R movie I watched as a kid with my dad was Ghost in the Darkness. Fun movie that isn’t too graphic OP

A lot of other good suggestions in here too
