General audiences

US film rating

Animals face traffic, predators, a threatening wildebeest group and an erupting volcano. Separation, bullying, slapstick injuries and some rude jokes accompany the adventure.

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