What Parents Need to Know

About The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle

Parents need to know that in order to market this movie to older kids by getting a PG rating, the producers have included brief mild language and cartoon-style violence. Very young children may be scared by the machine that turns people into vegetables (literally).

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about Karen's "ends justify the means" justification for stealing a truck and other dishonest acts, and Rocky's reply, "But we're supposed to be the heroes." Older kids will enjoy the way that the characters are aware that they are in a movie -- what people call "breaking down the fourth wall." Characters talk back to the narrator. When Karen is asked to explain her behavior, she says, "I didn't write this movie!"

  1. I rate this title on for age 2 and give it 4.0

    First I have a question

    What is with the hate this movie receives? So many people hated this, but I thought it was great because it did what any old Rocky and Bullwinkle show would have, it made me laugh and made fun of itself. Overall, it's a good movie, not great, but I enjoyed it.
