Sex & Nudity

  • The main characters are thirteen-year-olds in the throes of puberty, and they talk about it amongst themselves in a frank but mostly non-vulgar, almost gentle way. Pubic hair, masturbation, boobs, and periods are mentioned, and of course, zits. Several times, a girl hints to a shy guy that she wants him to touch her breasts.

Violence & Gore

  • The sound of gunfire is heard when small model airplanes shoot at another model plane. One plane crashes and burns.

Profanity

  • About ten uses throughout the film, including "son of a b*tch" and "damn." No very strong language such as "f*ck" or "c*nt"; no slurs.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • One "bad guy" smokes nearly continuously during his scenes. Nothing else.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The very youngest viewers might be worried when the kids get in trouble, but the movie is generally light-hearted.

Sex & Nudity

  • By invitation, Erskine hesitantly reaches inside Denver's blouse to feel her breasts for a moment. This is out-of-frame, we only see them from the neck up. Then they share one delicate kiss.
