✳ JUST FOR LAUGHS
Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie.
Two pranksters create a very unlikely hero.
George and Harold hypnotize their furious principal into becoming the underwear-clad superhero from their comics, just as a new teacher threatens the school's laughter.
View film information ↗Why it’s a little special
The boys' shared imagination drives a deliberately silly celebration of friendship and homemade comics.
BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
Constant toilet and underwear humor, bullying, cartoon destruction, and a comically threatening teacher.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
