Sex & Nudity
-
- At times we very briefly see the dogs genitals but they are shown in a non sexual context.
Violence & Gore
-
- Multiple shots of injured, maimed, or deceased animals are shown. The main characters' health declines as the film progresses, one for instance loses the bandages on head, exposing his still-unhealed brain surgery wound.
- Multiple scenes of rowf, snitter, and tod hunting and killing animals, some scene go from mild to bloody. (Most of the bloody scenes are in the uncut version).
- All public but with a warning for upsetting scenes.
- There are some infrequent but bloody scenes. Onscreen violence is brief.
- The uncut version briefly shows a bloodied, half-eaten sheep corpse.
- A gun is accidently set off, shooting a man in the face, with blood gushing from his head onto his hands. He covers his face with his hands. This scene is not very graphic, and is only shown for some few seconds.
- A man falls off of a high cliff, and little blood is shown. The animal characters later eat his corpse to survive. (The uncut version shows the graphic aftermath of the eaten corpse)
- a dog is intentionally drowned as part of a science experiment, after this the dog is shown on a table with the water being drained out of it. the dog survives.
Profanity
-
- Uses of arse, bugger, bloody, damn and hell are said frequently, mostly by tod and the humans.
- Some uses of arse are said (a British/Scottish term for ass)
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- Men are shown drinking beer.
- We see a man light and smoke a pipe in one scene.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- People who love dogs may feel upset with this movie.
- Scenes of violence and abuse towards animals are frequent and at times pretty intense.
- Snitter has seizures and hallucinates at times, very distressing and hard to watch.
- The fox can be creepy at some moments of the film.
- Dark, but does only depict reality. I think it has to be allowed for all, because I have seen on TV, images from 'puppy mills', which I do believe is a lot more harmful for many children. The fact that it's animated, aswell as that the animals can talk contributes to my desicion. Children are tougher than you might believe.
- Various animals are seen in testing labs, some of which are seen in distressed conditions. There are some intense scenes as the main characters run from authorities. There is a scene when the main characters escape from an incinerator, seconds before it ignites. Near the end of the film, the main characters have to escape by swimming into the sea: this leaves the ending very bleak and may upset some viewers.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- The tod is bitten on his back leg by hunting dogs (brief blood is seen) later he is killed offscreen by the hunting dogs (we see the hunters holding his dead body).
- A man grabs snitter's leg and in order for the man to let go rowf bites the mans arm.
- Snitter's owner is hit by a car. (The impact is offscreen but we do see the mans body hit the floor with blood forming around his head, this is discussed frequently throughout the film)
- Towards the end of the film, Rowf and Snitter are shot at but they are unharmed.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- Numerous animals such as rabbits, dogs, rats, and monkeys are seen being tested/harmed at a lab. Very disturbing.
