Truly this is a very entertaining movie. The plot is far-fetched but is still within the range of possibility. The actors and actresses acted the movie out so well I felt as if it was really happening. However I must admit that there is occasional violence but it is necessary for the plot. The violence is very mild and most of it is directed at dolls er... action figures but on the few times there is violence directed at humans there is no gore. Great film overall.

What Parents Need to Know
About Small Soldiers
Parents need to know that the "soldiers" of the title are ruthless killing machines in the body of dolls, who attack, terrorize and render impotent the humans around them. Young boys, especially, may want to imitate the destructive ideas, such as making weapons out of household items and climbing a power pole to ruin a transformer.
