Why it’s a little special

Talking animals and a fish-out-of-water setup keep the emphasis on light comic adventures.

Parental guidance suggested

US film rating

Animal separation, attempted kidnapping, mild rude material and slapstick danger. The dog initially treats others poorly.

Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
