Our take
Batman finds he has a pre-teen son raised by killers. The boy already fights like an adult and wants revenge. You will hear hell, damn, and b-word. Watch with a parent from 14. The child-in-combat scenes are the reason, not a one-off scare
Uplifting themes
A father tries to teach a different rule than kill or be killed Allies try to give the boy a home, not just a mission
Story (may spoil tone)
Batman learns he has a violent, unruly pre-teen son, secretly raised by the terrorist group known as The League of Assassins.

Talk after watching
- What do you say to a child who was taught that killing is the answer?
- Can a parent and child be a team if they do not agree about violence?
