PG
Parental guidance suggested

US film rating

The official US PG rating cites brief rude humor. Romantic jealousy, family meddling and uncomfortable social situations drive the comedy. The story focuses on adult relationships, so younger viewers may be less interested even when the content is mild.

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