Sex & Nudity
A man and a woman kiss, and a woman and a young man kiss in a few scenes. A woman confesses that she likes a young man and he tells her that he loves her. A woman talks about someone "messing around with" a man's daughter. We see a young man's bare chest when he lifts his shirt to show scratch and bite marks from a rat. A young man tries to find a place to hide a rat, that includes putting it down his pants (we see the waistband of his underwear).
Violence & Gore
A woman with a shotgun shoots repeatedly at two rats, many holes are blown in the house and furniture, the ceiling collapses and a huge number of rats pours out; the rats scurry and run, the woman follows the rats and continues shooting at them, the rats sail away on small makeshift boats, and one rat is separated from the others. A woman aims a gun at a man, the man grabs the woman's arm, they struggle and the gun fires but no one is struck. While hiding under a young man's shirt a rat scratches and bites him repeatedly; the man swats at it and thrashes around (we see red slash marks on his chest and abdomen later). A woman slaps a young man hard in the face. A woman raises her hand to strike a young man but does not. A rat falls through a skylight and into a dishpan in a restaurant kitchen, the rat jumps out of the dishpan, lands on the floor, is nearly stepped on and rolled over, an oven is lit and the rat runs as the flames shoot out of the oven bottom, falls into a pot and is nearly boiled, and falls into a roasting pan and is nearly roasted. A rat falls on a street and is nearly struck by many cars: people walking on the sidewalk kick and stomp at it (it is not injured). A man swings a mop handle at a rat, another uses a hatchet, and a young man catches it in a jar. A man on a scooter chases a rat through streets: the man drives down stairs, the rat jumps into a tree, then into the air and lands on a boat, and the man follows, missing the boat and landing in the water. A store window has a display with many rats whose heads are stuck in traps, and other rat killing items including poisons. A rat is trapped in a cage-like trap (it is not injured) and locked in the trunk of a car. Two men are bound and gagged and locked in a food pantry by rats. Several people with knives move toward a rat (they are stopped). A young man takes a rat in a jar to the river and plans to throw it in to kill it. A pack of rats chases a man, clamber onto his car, and he tries to drive away but crashes. A man on a bicycle crashes into a parked car. A rat carries a cheese knife and walks toward a noise coming from a shadow and another rat jumps out startling it. A rat is frightened and worried when it finds itself alone in a strange place. A rat smokes a mushroom over a chimney, and with another rat they are struck by lightning, thrown from the roof and to the ground (they have electrified fur but are otherwise OK). A dog barks incessantly at a rat. A man yells at and is repeatedly insulting to a young man and other staff members in a kitchen. A woman threatens to kill a young man. A blindfolded young man uses a knife to cut and chop food and cooks while a rat controls his movements. The floor of a man's room is shaped like a coffin. A young man imagines a man telling him that he'd like to order his "heart roasted on a spit." We hear that a man died after receiving a bad review from a food critic. A man talks about having killed someone with his thumb, and a woman talks about several other men and their dangerous backgrounds (being in prison, and being mysterious). We hear explosions and see flashes of light coming from inside a house and a rat crashes through a window. A young man flips a crepe out an open window and we hear a traffic accident in the street below. A rat pulls a young man's hair to control his movements. A young man tastes a soup and vomits out of a window (we hear him gagging). A woman sees many rats working in a kitchen and nearly vomits. A rat finds rat poison among the garbage that other rats are eating from, and stops them from eating any more.
Profanity
1 anatomical term, a few references to rat "patootie," 1 mild obscenity, name-calling (idiot, insane, fancy pants, stupid, dumb).
Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking
A man pours a glass of wine and drinks from it, a man drinks wine, people pour glasses of wine and toast (no one is shown drinking), and a man pours wine over a rat's head.
Ryan and I went to see this tonight after a nice fishy dinner at Wichita Fish Co. and Restaurant. The theater was packed for opening night and I'd say a good third of the audience of all ages was 18 and younger. I had a ball. I giggled, chortled, and otherwise hee-hawed until I cried- several times. In true Pixar fashion, there was a little cartoon at the beginning that had me in absolute stitches. (Yes, it's easy to make me laugh, and hard, but I wasn't the only one rolling). Ryan had a good guffaw here and there as well. I told him that because of the presence of wine (Hello? It's Paris!) and a nearsighted rifle-totin' granny at the beginning (who was a bad shot), that this film will never be shown during indoor recess at school because of the zero-tolerance policy, Disney and a G rating or no. But hell, this parental warning makes me wonder if the reviewer didn't confuse "Ratatouille" for "Scarface".
I notice that there are no warnings for "Sleeping Beauty". http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0053285/parentalguide. Magical incantations and spells? Poison? Prince Charming kissing Aurora? Battle of Good versus Evil? None of that made it in???
None for Cinderella either. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0042332/parentalguide
Slavery, verbal/psychological/physical abuse. Magic. Nothin'.
Aladdin. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103639/parentalguide Reference to chopping off of hands, stealing, etc. No mention.
The Lion King. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110357/parentalguide Lots of scary moments for young Simba with nary a comment made.
How freakin' HYPOCRITICAL. The people who make the reviews regard the past as pristine and untouchable, true classics as it were, but today?! A manifesto is written about how deplorable this movie is. It's amazing Pixar isn't on some Axis of Evil!!!
I leave it to you whether or not you want to take you children to the movie. If you're good PARENTS and TRULY COMMUNICATE WITH- not to, but WITH- YOUR CHILDREN, then your children will understand the difference between MAKE-BELIEVE/FICTION and REAL LIFE in any media, books, movies, and games. I can only hope.
