VIOLENCE/GORE 2 - A man shoots at a man and child. A woman bites another woman's leg. A riot in a theater with tons of jumping frogs. A woman is made flat and a man is made boneless and is then boomeranged into a window where his face goes splat. A woman is pulled into a mirror and then breaks into many pieces. Lots of scenes where people twirl around in the midst of spells. Chases, falls, pratfalls, a scuffle.
LANGUAGE 1 - A couple of mild obscenities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Witchcraft, making wishes come true, fantasy.
MESSAGE - Wishes come true from inside you.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
Moana 2 - 1.3.1
Gladiator II - 2.7.2
Wicked: Part I - 3.4.2
Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin. - 1.5.3
Emilia Pérez - 6.6.7
