US film rating

The official US PG rating cites some mature thematic elements and brief language. Bereavement, family tragedy and anger or doubt about God are central subjects. The story includes explicit Christian beliefs, comic behavior and competitive golf; parents may want to discuss its treatment of grief and miracles.

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