Out

Parents need to know that Out is a short animated film from Pixar. Its lack of iffy content makes it appropriate for all ages, but its message about a man being honest with his parents about his sexual orientation may not be entirely clear to the youngest viewers. Kids will enjoy the animation, as well as the story device of two characters (in this case, a man and his dog) switching bodies. Some of the comical hijinks are perhaps especially targeted at kids -- like watching the man behave like a dog, including sniffing his dad's bottom, and the dog like a man, including peeing on the carpet. The comic violence isn't scary. Messages about love and acceptance are embodied by sweet, caring characters, including couple Greg and Manuel, who share a brief kiss. "Jeez" is the extent of language.
