Oh, Won't Recommend CSM for kids under 15. Infant: 0-1 (0 & 1). Toddler: 2-4 (2 or 3 and 4). Early Kid: 5-8 (5 or 6 or 7 and 8). Tween: 9-11 (9 or 10 and 11). Preteen: 12 (Preteen Age). Early-Teenager: 13-15 (13 or 14 and 15). Mid-Teen: 16-17 (16 & 17). Adult Teen: 18-19 (18 & 19). Adult (without being a teen): 20-54 (20 or 21 or 22 or 23 or 24 or 25 or 26 or 27 or 28 or 29 or 30 or 31 or 32 or 33 or 34 or 35 or 36 or 37 or 38 or 39 or 40 or 41 or 42 or 43 or 44 or 45 or 46 or 47 or 48 or 49 or 50 or 51 or 52 or 53 and 54).

When you are dead: 100+ (100 or <100). BUT STILL IFFY ONLY 12+ Violence? Lots of Violence. S? Yes, used the word of "P*rv from the H*rv". Language? We'll, they said lots of bad words so we'll say NO!!! and you can say "hell" but don't say it in school, people will get mad, even that's an insult too. ABOUT EAT A CRAKER? Because, Yes. Ok. and Consumerism? Buy. Drug Abuse? Yes, Drinked "Mari**ana" or "Mariana" or "Marianna" or try also "Mary-Hannah Montana". Negative Messages-Role Models-User Content? Maybe. Safety? I don't know, only a Religion knows. but 2012 or 12/21/12 is never dying. Okay we're done with oops! and ok behaviors. Now Starting WOW! Behaviors. Educational? Sometimes. Positive Messages? No. Positive Role Models? Yes. So I recommend this movie for 12 and over with the kids, 14 and over with the family and 15 and over with friends and stuff. and I think no one should ever talk to strangers, 17 and under are afraid of strangers, it's not safe in a way.

What Parents Need to Know
This review of All Dogs Go to Heaven was written by M. Faust
Parents need to know that there are some cartoonish descriptions of death and intense scenes that may disturb sensitive children. The main character, Charlie, goes to Hell in one scene that is revealed to be a dream, and main characters, including Charlie and his buddy Itchy, die. The villain is eventually taken away and presumably eaten by a giant crocodile. Also, orphan girl Anne-Marie is threatened with death in a river of fire. Additionally, the film contains references to gambling, stealing, and smoking.
Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about forgiveness and earning trust.
- Families may also want to discuss why it's important to keep your word, as Charlie eventually did in the film. Why did Charlie change his ways? Why is it important to forgive people who earn your trust back?
- Also, how could Anne-Marie's friends make her feel more loved and wanted? How do we make our friends feel loved every day?
More on All Dogs Go to Heaven
What’s the Story?
Charlie B. Barkin (voiced by Burt Reynolds) and his pal Itchy (Dom DeLuise) break out of prison after being framed by Charlie's partner Carface. When Charlie tries to reclaim his share of the casino they ran, Carface has him killed. Charlie goes to Heaven, which he finds way too dull. He returns to Earth by stealing his life span watch. Charlie rebuilds his empire with the help of Itchy and Anne-Marie, an orphan girl who can talk to animals. Charlie uses her to get horse-racing information while emptily promising to help her find new parents.
Is It Any Good?
There are many odd segments in ALL DOGS GO TO HEAVEN that seem to complicate, not extend, the plot. But this doesn't seem to bother younger viewers, who enjoy having their shorter attention spans tweaked. The key of the film is its uplifting message that people (and dogs) can always follow through on their word and be redeemed. Despite his selfish deeds, Charlie eventually does the right thing, and earns back his place in heaven, while Carface is carted off, presumably to be eaten by a crocodile.
Many don't seem to mind the film's darkness, which is set in an urban world of poverty that couldn't contrast more with the squeaky-clean suburban normality of most kids' movies. It helps that the characters and backgrounds are drawn with entrancing style, and that the story isn't as grim as the setting might suggest. But more sensitive children may be disturbed by the depiction of death and violence.

May be an interesting movie for pre-teens, but for little children? Nah.
I enjoyed this movie when I was a baby, minus the darker scenes, which scared me out of my wits. I'm not a parent, but I think it would be wise to watch this with your child and/or fast forward through the scary scenes if you plan on buying or renting this video for them. Pre-teens may get more enjoyment out of the movie and have more of an understanding of what the movie's all about.

This movie is a perfect 10 in my book. This movie was funny, suspensful, and very powerful. This movie has the most powerful movie ever. It always makes me tear up because Anne Marie says goodbye to Charlie reminds me of the moments when I had to say my final goodbyes to past loved ones including my dogs. It brought back all of those emotions of loving them and never forgetting them but needing to move on without forgetting. Also Charlie does make a personanilty change from the beginning where he is just using Anne Marie to make money to the end when he actually cares about her and gives up his own live to save her life. Which is so touching, now that is the way I would want to die saving the lives of others like the firefighters, policemen, and paramedics that tragically died being a true hero on 911. Charlie is a true definition of a hero he not perfect not at all I mean he is involved in gambling and owns his own illegal casino but has a heart much bigger than the one beating away in his body.Charlie isn's a typical kid movie hero he has many flaws about himself which makes him more human not just some perfect fantacy with his older brother like sidekick Itchy who always tries to keep him in line but what Itchy tells him throughout the course of the movie eventually changes him from evil to good. And in this movie the villain is a true villain. Carface which is a play off the name Scarface is voiced perfectly by Vic Tayback with his rusty voice is so powerful and scary. He truely isn't a good dog and will do anything to kill Charlie I mean he framed Charlie and got him on death row (pound) killed him with his car, but Charlie came back to life, and eventually Carface kills him by threatening to kill the one person Charlie truely cares about Anne Marie and dies saving her. I do recomend the second movie not as sad or as good animation but overall a more uplifting and cheery movie. Charlie has same personality. R.I.P Judith Barsi (Anne Marie) Dom DeLuise (Itchy) Vic Tayback (Carface) Charles Nelson Reilly (Killer)
