Jessie and the Elf Boy

Parents need to know that Jessie and the Elf Boy is a crowdfunded Scottish fantasy film about a friendship between a forest elf and a teenage girl, and has some slapstick action and threat that makes it only suitable for tweens and up. Hair stylist Jessie (Julia Brown) becomes world famous for the out-there hairstyles she gives customers at the salon she works at. However, it's actually the work of invisible elf Ghillie Dhu (Huck Whittle), although Jessie is willing to take the credit. The movie also focuses on Jessie's mean and distant mother (Gail Watson) learning the error of her ways. A short scene with a sexually aggressive man forcing Jessie to kiss him and refusing to leave her flat after a date feels only suitable for an older audience. This aside, it's a fun movie with a good message. There is light violence and threat, such as when the elf prods a man with a fork and when burglars enter a home. Expect a little rude humor, including jokes around burping. Characters have glasses of wine on their table during a date, and a man makes reference to the waiter "being on something" and later suggests that there was something in his own drink, after feeling unwell.
