Why it’s a little special

Sweeping ocean adventure with a particularly good conversation afterward about inherited beliefs, empathy, and having the courage to change your mind.

Know the story.
Know your little people.

Parental guidance suggested

US film rating

Large monsters, cannon fire, shipwrecks, combat, and injured characters. An orphan's loss and several intense chase scenes may unsettle sensitive viewers.

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