00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:04.380
Are the antics in Spirited
a little too lively for kids?

00:00:04.380 --> 00:00:09.111
[Music plays]

00:00:09.111 --> 00:00:10.205
[Crowd gasps]

00:00:10.205 --> 00:00:12.900
Well, it's edgy at times,
but still teen friendly.

00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:14.613
"He's fine; he's good! Wow
he's squirrelly!"

00:00:14.613 --> 00:00:16.145
"Well, none of this is
real anyway."

00:00:16.145 --> 00:00:18.660
Ryan Reynolds and Will
Ferrell headline this

00:00:18.660 --> 00:00:20.820
musical comedy based
on A Christmas Carol

00:00:20.820 --> 00:00:23.340
that flips the script by
coming at the story from

00:00:23.340 --> 00:00:24.360
the ghosts' perspective.

00:00:24.360 --> 00:00:27.203
"You can't just run away
from me when I'm haunting

00:00:27.203 --> 00:00:28.147
you! Hello?!"

00:00:28.147 --> 00:00:31.380
Unlike the classic tale, this
one's much more silly than

00:00:31.380 --> 00:00:32.262
sinister.

00:00:32.262 --> 00:00:34.980
The slapstick action
includes falls, characters

00:00:34.980 --> 00:00:38.374
lifted by the crotch, and
literal slaps across the face.

00:00:38.374 --> 00:00:39.180
"Oh!"

00:00:39.180 --> 00:00:43.020
Language-wise, expect use
of the S-word, plus innuendo,

00:00:43.020 --> 00:00:44.580
and some inventive insults.

00:00:44.580 --> 00:00:46.344
"Is there a Ghost of
Christmas Grumpy?

00:00:46.344 --> 00:00:47.580
Because you could
do that job."

00:00:47.580 --> 00:00:50.460
As for take-home lessons,
the main one is clear.

00:00:50.460 --> 00:00:53.280
Namely, that we all have
goodness and decency

00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:54.600
inside of us somewhere.

00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:55.560

00:00:55.560 --> 00:00:58.980
Common Sense says
Spirited is OK for teens 13

00:00:58.980 --> 00:00:59.580
and up.
