General audiences

US film rating

Hospital scenes, separation and the prospect of losing a beloved pet make this emotionally sad in places. There is teasing and comic rough treatment of Snoopy.

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