i was surprised by how vilont the movie was. Most of hameasakie's films are kid friendly but this one certainly wasnt. There is a lot of shouting, vilonce, peril, and a scene were a grown man almost killed a 10 year old girl on purpose with a gun. but it is a good movie and it is a good movie for all kids ages 10 and up. BUT NOT FOR 9!!!!!!!

This was in the children's section of our local library and when I asked the librarian she said it would be fine for my kids. Boy was she wrong! There was way too much shooting and aggressive behavior like fist fighting. Things are blown up in fiery explosions. Not at all for younger kids.

This movie is very mildly violent. Soooooooooo mildly violent. Or possibly "NO violence" and "Action" instead. There are no phsical damages a lot, but there is a lot of machine guns, rockets, bombs, and that kind of stuff. But 97/100% of the weapons miss their shot, and they dont "show" any people die. They DO show a friendly robot getting blasted, but repaired.

Ahh my first Miyazaki movie one of my all time favs. No real innuendo in this movie just great epic action and a amazing plot. This movie has so much meaning in it.

Miyazaki's most Disney-ish fim. While ludicros at times, it works overall.
