The violence is mainly played to a comedic effect, but know that there are a lot of deaths and several moments that could be construed as scary for some younger audiences. Things don’t get too graphic or bloody, but between jaguar maulings, rhino trampling, hippo devourings and spontaneous body explosions, there is a good amount of violence. I would say “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” earns its PG-13 stripes in the violence category. For example, I rewatched “Home Alone” the other night and there was definitely more language in that movie than in “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle.” There is a bit of language scattered throughout the film, but nothing too harsh and no mention of the so-called R-rated word.īy the time the film ends, the language is more along the lines of a PG film than a PG-13 film. This category was actually more mild than I thought it would be. Other than that, there is mainly just harmless flirting and teenage romance, but nothing else that I think could really be construed as offensive. While the outfit is certainly revealing, it’s also explained why Gillan’s character is dressed like this and it’s comical in nature. The other thing is one character, Karen Gillan, is dressed in a midriff and short shorts throughout the film. Jack Black is actually a teenage girl in a grown man’s body so naturally, this opens up for several jokes about certain body parts this character now has that are foreign and scary. That likely seems like an oxymoron, but I didn’t think the jokes were offensive, but they were scatological in nature. There is a bit of off-color humor in the film that is sexual in nature, but I wouldn’t necessarily call it crude. Be aware, but also know that if you’ve seen any of the trailers for “Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle,” I am not revealing anything you don’t already know. I’m going to do my best to avoid any spoilers here, but in order to let you know what to expect in this category, there may be a mild spoiler. I’m just here to tell you what was in the movie and hopefully help you make an educated decision. Again, I need to let you know like I do in all of these parent reviews, I cannot and will not tell you what is and is not appropriate for you or your kids - only you can make that decision.
