Why it’s a little special

A very silly buddy comedy with excellent timing and little wasted motion. Ideal when everyone wants a short, energetic film and a proper laugh.

BEFORE YOU PRESS PLAY

Know the story.
Know your little people.

General audiences

US film rating

A villain plots murder, and characters fall, fight and face jaguars. Most danger is played as slapstick; Kuzco begins the story behaving cruelly.

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