For those unfamiliar with the premise, a male FBI agent goes undercover as an elderly female nanny to a family being investigated. This movie is rated PG, and played during a PG time slot.
Concern was raised from viewers about a scene that took place in a spa change room (some of which is included in the trailer below).
Young women are seen walking around in lingerie and various states of undress while Martin Lawrence's "Big Momma" is in character. One walks right up to Martin/the camera, asking for assistance to unhook her front bra clasp.
The scene does nothing to further the plot line, so could easily have been removed by the programming staff when they chose to air it.
Also, the movie ends with a sexualised dance performance from young 7 year old girls, while the camera is zoomed in for extreme close ups. This too can feel inappropriate and unsuitable in a children's movie
What did you think? Were the complaints justified? Would you feel comfortable with your children watching these scenes? Let us know below
