A comprehensive, alphabetical list of films released in the United States that were condemned by the Catholic Church during two decades beginning November 1, 2003, when the modern system of ratings was established.

FINAL UPDATE: In July 2022, the Catholic News Service suspended film reviews. The organization was replaced by OSV News, a national and international wire service reporting on Catholic issues and issues that affect Catholics. The ratings system and archive of reviews were not retained, so this list is now officially complete. Moving forward, films that would have been condemned are now rated "U" - unsuitable for all.
