Most notably, a good guy is brutally stabbed through the chest, and dies as you watch, his eyes open all the while. Some evil alien space monsters could also be scary for the younger set or kids who frighten easily.
Also, some of the scenes are intense, with heart-pounding fight action; 2. All female characters are extremely sexy, and dressed in skin-tight clothing. Black Widow's sex appeal is obvious and is one of her most powerful tools, which I personally found inappropriate and unnecessary in a movie for kids. One of the early scenes shows her sitting tied up in a chair, very scantily clad, while three male captors tower over her, torture, and play with her.
True, she kicks their butts and turns out to be as powerful a fighter as any of her colleagues. But I found that scene, the sexy appearance of every female character, and the way that female sex appeal was used a a commodity, to send some pretty unhealthy messages for young girls in the audience.

I went at midnight to see with my 14 yr old. We loved it so much, I took my husband and 2 younger kids the next day. My 5 yr old and 8 yr old loved it.
It is violent but its not gory. My kids also saw Thor and both Iron Man and they loved and I didnt have any issues with them. Only Issues Barely noticeable, and I never heard anything worse, unless you still consider Hell a bad word to hear at least There is like Zero sexuality here I dont even think Black Widow is flirty like another reviewer mentioned. Unless you consider hulks bare chest If you let your kids watch Star Wars I dont think this is any worse..
Biggest problem If you son isnt used to this long of a movie, I wouldnt try it, but mine really wanted to see it with us and did fine through Thor and Iron Man. He is almost 6. I recommend perfectly for 8 yrs old and up..
I cant imagine limiting this to PG 13, it really is almost PG to me. This title contains: Positive Messages. Positive role models. Helped me decide 3. Had useful details 5.

Despite the near-constant action, it might be a bit long for some kids with atten Continue reading. Report this review. Parent of a 5, 8, 11, and year-old Written by MidnightMom May 5, The Best Family Movie we could see.
