Parent Verdict

This one is darker than its reputation suggests: boys are kidnapped, smoke cigars and drink beer on Pleasure Island, and the donkey transformation scene is genuinely nightmarish. Monstro the whale is also intense for little ones. Best for 6 and up, with a chat afterward about the scarier moments.
