Lots of gun violence, fighting, and glorification of alcoholism!

Rating: 5/10 (14 August 2013)

I rented this film to watch with children, ages 7 & 8. It was a good reminder that just because a film is animated and marketed towards children, does not mean it's actually appropriate for them. I was alarmed how much CRIME was in the movie. Breaking and entering, TONS of gun violence and almost every scene consisted of a fist fight. Not to mention the glorification alcoholism- the Captain drank bottle after bottle of whiskey, and when he was sober, he was forgetful. Even the dog slipped him a mickey to get what they wanted out of him.
I'm not a prude, mind you- I love the Asian Extreme directors, Tarantino, and the likes, but I'm an adult with strong critical thinking skills, and my strong critical thinking skills, along with my teaching background and interest in how media effects children prompted me to write this review to warn other parents and caregivers of children to be wary of this film and to remember that animation does NOT equal appropriate.
