BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY
Know the story.
Know your little people.
The child-snatching Ragman, eerie dolls, transformation threats and battles can be genuinely frightening despite the G rating.
Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
