Bara says...

Ages 5+, but every child is different

The film features slapstick humor and stylized, non-realistic cartoon peril that is generally accessible for school-aged children. Younger viewers may find the villain-centric narrative and scenes of fantasy threat slightly intense.

Sex & Nudity

0/5

The movie contains no sexual content or nudity. There is no romantic focus beyond minor, humorous flirtation.

Violence & Gore

1/5

The violence is limited to slapstick humor and typical cartoon mischief, such as characters falling, being hit with objects, or engaging in playful scuffles.

Profanity

1/5

The dialogue is very clean, featuring only an occasional, mild expletive like 'h*ll' or 'd*mn' used in comedic, non-offensive contexts.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

1/5

There are brief, isolated instances of background social drinking or historical smoking (like characters in a gala setting), but these are not a focus or a glorification.

Frightening Scenes

2/5
