This 80's classic has not aged well.
This 80's classic is ok entertainment wise but its humor is too off color. Violence is not to graphic, slightly intense at times but not enough to put it at PG-13. A shootout with a mob family, and skeletons that were killed in colorful ways. Drugs are not shown but a joke about the child translating Spanish to a Nanny the child says "The marijuana goes in the top drawer. The cocaine and speed in the second. The heroin in the bottom. Always separate the drugs." Sex is joked about in the same child translating to the Nanny, saying "Never go up there. It's filled with Mr. Walsh's Sexual torture devices." Referring to the attic. Plus the kids making fun of a statue's genitalia, and a boy looking up a girls skirt. Language is present in the form of Sh*t, damn, ass, hell. Now the part about this film not ageing well, Italians are shown in a stereotypical ways, a man with a deformed face is called a monster, Fat-phobic jokes are frequent, Data is Asian and shown is stereotypical ways such as being the nerdy and geeky character.

If you are under 11 watch it with your parents or guardian
The movie is great but it's a bit mature for kids under 11

A lot of swears and other things
I don’t remember it being that inappropriate but when I watched it I was shocked. It uses Asian stereotypes and there is a lot of swearing. I was shocked when the kid mentioned “cocaine” and “meth”

Family-friendly 1980s adventure movie
Violence/Fright/Scariness: Skeletons and dead/frozen bodies appear along the way. Torture is threatened.
Drinking/Drugs/Smoking: Drugs and drug dealers are mentioned. A boy speaks incorrect Spanish, which translates to “The marijuana goes in the top drawer, the cocaine and speed in the second, the heroin in the bottom”
Sex: Kissing and romance. “Naked pics” are mentioned.
Bad Language: PG-level. ‘Sh**’ and ‘bullsh**’ are used.

Woah, what did that CHILD say?
It’s rated 9+ because of all the LANGUAGE!!! i tried watching this at 6 or 7 and my mom had to turn it off after a few minutes because of the cuss words, such as s—t, d—n, go——mn, a-s, dumba—-s etc. if you don’t want your kids to become OBSESSED with swear words DO NOT let them watch it! although it is quite entertaining, the swearing is just too much. Maybe I’ll watch this again someday?
