The good stuff

  • Messages:

    Characters work as a team to rescue friends and family.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence & scariness:

    Mild cartoon violence with sword fights and cannons. But no one gets hurt, and tickling is actually used in one scene to battle a villain.

  • Sexy stuff:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    Part of the vast Scooby-Doo empire.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Scooby-Doo: Pirates Ahoy!

Parents need to know that a few scenes may be scary for younger kids, like when the ghost pirates first appear, or when a giant sea serpent rises out of the ocean. There's a little cartoon violence, but nothing too worrisome.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the different personalities and character traits of Scooby and friends. How has the gang changed over time? Also, the movie provides a fun way to educate kids about the Bermuda Triangle, pirates, ships, and other sea-related themes. What would your pirate name be? Do you think there are sea monsters, or are they just great fish stories that are more believable because the ocean seems so vast and mysterious?
