Sex & Nudity

Violence & Gore

  • a man's throat is cut, we do not see the act but the bloody aftermath as another pirate tries to shake him awake. Quite shocking and abrupt for a kids movie
  • Two men engage in a fight with swords, but neither man is seriously injured.
  • A man collapses and dies after being handed a "black spot" (summons).
  • Two groups of men engage gunfire and cannon fire. One man is shot in the stomach and collapses. Another man is shot in the side and dies soon after.
  • A man dies off camera, and we hear his cry of terror.
  • A man knocks another man down with a stick, grapples with him, and stabs him through the chest with a knife.
  • Two groups of men shoot at each other with guns and cannons.
  • A man is stabbed in the leg.
  • A group of men is fired on by another group of men. Several men fall to the ground, as if shot. Two men grapple. One man runs a sword through another man. We see the sword go into the man's stomach and come out his back.
  • Lots of talk about killing and being hanged, throughout the movie.

Profanity

  • Most of the pirates use moderate swearing such as bastard, bugger, bloody hell and other similar profanities. "Up your arse, mutineer!" is a direct quote.
  • Other expressions include: "Damn", "Goddamn", "Son of a whore".

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Near constant consumption of rum.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The fight scenes, including sword fights, gun fire, and cannon fire, can be intense for young children.
  • A skeleton is found in the jungle, with hair attached to the skull and the mouth open. This is a short scene, but may frighten younger viewers.

Violence & Gore
