Certification
Sex & Nudity
-
- A painter is seen painting a person who is naked. However, the person is a skeleton and so there is no actual nudity aside from bare bones. Comedic.
- A character changes a word in a song to make it appropriate for "children present", implying that the line was about how "her (knockers)...drag on the floor". Kids won't understand it, but adults will get the joke.
- It is mentioned that Ernesto De La Cruz's music caused people to fall in love with him
- A pair of sparkly breifs ( worn by a wrestler) are seen hanging on a clothesline.
Violence & Gore
-
- Abuela intentionally smashes Miguel's guitar in a heated argument.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
- It's revealed that Hector died by being poisoned.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- A giant bell falls on De La Cruz and kills him twice. Hector is poisoned and is briefly shown dying on screen.
- It's implied that an elderly Grandma Coco has passed away off screen by the end, though nothing explicit is shown.
- Imelda is shown to suffer from PTSD, due to the trauma inflicted by her abandonment caused by Hector, which heavily affects her and leads her to decide that music is meaningless and decides to ban it. To prove this point, she's shown having fits of rage and a few panic attacks when someone shows her a musical instrument. The depiction is slightly realistic, and might be a bit distressing for some.
- After trying to steal Ernesto's guitar from a tomb, Miguel becomes invisible to his family members around him, and he is running and scared as he passes through them.
- Hector is shown to abandon his wife, Imelda, and little Coco.
- Miguel is tossed over the edge of a high ledge and falls for a long time before being caught by Pepita.
- A male skeleton whips a female skeleton around in a violent dance on stage in front of an audience as he tries to take a photo away from her hand.
- While in the spirit realm, Miguel's hands and stomach area start to dematerialize and his bones become visible as the night goes on and morning approaches.
- The scene where Miguel is being scolded by his family may be upsetting to some, and may hit close to home.
- At the end mama Coco dies but she is a skeleton
- The character Héctor's backstory may upset some, and when he is being forgotten and is shown to become weaker and weaker, this might upset viewers too, as most viewers may grow to like him.
- Ernesto De La Cruz is an insane psychopath and his actions are very rude, unpleasant, atrocious, and creepy. He was nice as a performer, but he is seen on the intercom ranting on Miguel and then tosses him overboard.
- The supposedly called "villain" (Ernesto De La Cruz) in this movie throws Miguel off a high ledge, which may be frightening for kids younger than 8.
- Abuelita forces Miguel to apologize to Mama Coco in front of his father and mother after he enters her room, and when he doesn't do it she repeats herself "Well, Apologize!" in an even more stern voice. At that point all of Miguel's living family is is in Mama Coco's room.
- After Miguel's father open up the door to Mama Coco's room he walks straight up to Miguel angry and says "Miguel what has gotten into you!" But when he sees Miguel sobbing he quickly calms down and becomes relieved and embraces his son saying he was so worried about him and that he almost lost him Miguel apologizes to him.
- A skeleton man fades away.
