Avengers: Infinity War

Movie 2018 149 min Adventure, Action, Science Fiction Last reviewed 23 Sep 2026
Official Rating M ClearAge 13+

Why our age differs

Official is M. We say 13+ because the action is comic-book fantasy with light blood. Mild innuendo and swearing are not the reason to raise higher

Our take

Earth's heroes scramble to stop a warlord hunting powerful stones across space and cities. Frequent fantasy fights, alien armies and a fantastical torture stretch land with some blood and very mild innuendo. Swearing stays mostly mild, with incomplete stronger words. Fine with a parent from 13. The last stretch is emotionally heavy for kids who bond with these characters.

Uplifting themes

Allies from across worlds unite against impossible odds Heroes risk themselves for strangers and for one another

Story (may spoil tone)

As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment - the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.

Talk after watching

  • Is a "greater good" that costs many lives ever okay?
  • How do teammates keep going when the odds look impossible?
