I watched this movie on FX this morning and it's really good. I didn't notice a scene where someone almost spells the f-word, but it might've been edited out for television. Anyway, the movie has some slapstick violence, but nothing really bad for kids 9+. Plus, it has a good message about the importance of family, friends, and working together. Violence: Some slapstick violence, but nobody gets seriously hurt. A child is missing for a little bit, but we find out quickly he's ok. Language: A scene apparently shows a character almost spelling the f-word. But nothing really bad.
