I've been there before, it hurts to feel so invisible. But it's not necessarily about me, I decided. I think a lot of people are just burned out and running on autopilot.

There’s a few on screen deaths that they take head on unapologetically. There’s no euphemisms nor off screen death nor other ambiguity. I wouldn’t say there’s anything particularly gory.

The themes are dealing with grief and loss of innocence. So you’d have to gauge how well a kid could handle those things because they’d have to be fairly mature.

To me it kinda feels like the kind of movies they made in the 80s in terms of how scary (for lack of a better word) it gets

My 8 year old saw it last weekend. He covered his eyes for a few things, but he walked out of the theatre happy. I think the MPAA/PEGI play it too safe a lot of the time, kids are pretty resilient as long as you give them a happy ending. I tend to side with Don Bluth on that. For example, we watched Robot Dreams (2023) and even though it was a cute story with no wars or suicides and the ending was merely bittersweet, he still bawled his eyes out and was really broken up about it.

Not to spoil too much, but there's some heavy topics like grief, loss, murder, and suicide. There's also an extended battle scene similar to the battle of Helm's Deep from LotR. It's definitely not a movie for little kids, but there is certainly a lot of spectacle and probably a 10 year old would enjoy it.

Depends on what you're comfortable with them seeing. Characters are shot and killed. There's blood. And >!there's kind of a suicide scene. It's not a real person though. Kinda like a machine. With a hole in their chest. It's a pretty short scene, but still. !<

What's the theater's pork chop policy?
