Our take
Villains play cruel pranks in this Netflix PG rated for rude humor, thematic material, action and some language. Kids and magical animals team up to stop them. Gross-out jokes, cartoon chaos and mild scares appear, without graphic violence. Fine for most school-age viewers who know Dahl's mischief.
Uplifting themes
Kindness, teamwork and standing up to bullies win Brave kids and animal allies model courage Introduces classic literature and musical storytelling
Story (may spoil tone)
When the meanest, nastiest villains pull a trick to take over their town, two brave children team up with a family of magical animals to bring them down.
