Heartwarming!! Cried multiple times

I enjoyed this movie a lot!! I cried multiple times but in the end, it is a really sweet and heartwarming movie. There is some mild language, but there isn't really any content. The only reason I would rate this 10+ is because of the many attempts at suicide throughout the movie, and I think that some of the themes may not really be understood by children any younger than 10. Overall, this is a really sweet story and I really enjoyed the movie!! :)

PG-13 for a reason!

I went to see this movie with my family. We have watched PG-13 movies and been ok in the past, but my 8yo brother got so scared at this movie. While I understood the little bits of slapstick humor, he did not. We had to leave before it was finished. The trailers did not suggest any suicidal themes, but they were intense in the movie! Overall, it was a funny movie, but if you are triggered easily, or have kids younger than 13, avoid this movie!

Possible triggers for kids

If your child gets triggered easily (like me) I would definitely not take them. I had to leave the theater and come back multiple times because of su1c1de. Other than that, it was an amazing movie.

i loved iy

I watched this movie with my parents & 11 year old sister, we all enjoyed it. It made all of us cry though, lol. 11+ as long as you’re mature enough to handle suicidal themes

Great morals

When I read the plot of the story before watching the film it seemed sad as it’s mainly about suicide but it starts to teach good morals showing that there’s more to life than you think

Life is Worth it

I absolutely loved this movie. It was so well made. Tom Hanks can still act and that is so awesome!! He does amazing in this. It does have themes that deal with suicide so if u get triggered by those sort of things, maybe this isn’t for u. Also, I LOVE MARISOL!
