What is the rating for planes for kids?

Planes is rated PG by the MPAA for some mild action and rude humor.



The 2013 Disney animated film Planes is rated G (General Audiences) in the United States by the MPAA, meaning it is considered suitable for all ages. In some other regions, it carries a PG (Parental Guidance) rating due to "mild action and rude humor." While the movie is a spin-off of the Cars franchise and targeted directly at young children, parents should be aware of a few scenes that might be intense for toddlers. For example, there is a flashback to a wartime mission involving Skipper that shows planes in peril, and the protagonist, Dusty Crophopper, experiences a frightening storm and a crash into the ocean. There is also some mild "name-calling" among the racing competitors. Generally, the movie is highly recommended for children aged 5 and up, as it emphasizes positive themes like courage, perseverance, and overcoming one's fears (specifically Dusty's fear of heights).

Children under five years and some slightly older children might find some of the scenes too scary, so we don't recommend the movie for children under 5 years. We also recommend parental guidance for children aged 5-8 years.

The movie received its PG-13 rating because of “suggestive references” and “brief language.” Some parents may not be ready or comfortable to discuss the more advanced plot lines while others may simply just know if their child is or is not ready to be introduced to mature topics.
