Parents need to know that this is a pretty cynical take on the Superfriends concept. The people being rescued aren't always grateful, and the rescuers aren't all in it for the joy of doing good for humanity. And their version of superhero horsing around during the obligatory at-home scenes can be pretty cruel.
Positive messages:Shows people behaving badly even as the heroes are rescuing them -- in one sequence, for example, the rescuees step on the rescuer's head. Plus, there's the reliance on violence to save the world.
Violence & scariness:These animated action figures are saving the world from the evil Dr. Paine, and you can't do that without fight sequences, lasers, assorted weaponry, and explosions.
