BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Threats to puppies, a near-drowning, rough comic violence, teen drinking, and a boy pressuring a girl at a party.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
