Ages 6+, but every child is different
The film features cartoonish peril and a villainous character with intent to harm animals, which may be frightening for very young viewers. The high-stakes conflict and intense sequences are better suited for children who can follow a linear narrative and differentiate between fantasy villainy and reality.
