What Parents Need to Know

About Digimon: The Movie

Parents need to know that at one point some characters believe their beloved Digimon may have been killed, but are later told that "Digimon can never really die." Our heroes are nearly blown up by an atomic missile. Some of the larger Digimon look pretty creepy, particularly the villainous Diaboromon. (One five-year-old girl confessed to being frightened by some of the more monstrous opponents). A lot of fantasy violence. Monsters fight one another in claw-to-claw combat and zap each other with power beams. In one case, a good Digimon uses a mystical sword to dispatch his foe.

    • My highlights are:
    • Good role models

    Great.

    Awesome movie. Cute too! Some parts are kind of extreme though. Well, at least it's not "the Wrath of Piedmon", in which the bad guy turns EVERYONE but 4 characters into KEYCHAINS! My fave part is when the ladybug guy says he has to go potty. :D

    Not as good as the TV version.

    Like I just said, the TV version is much better.
