Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • A woman is shown injured and unresponsive in a river. This may be intense for some.
  • Intimidating atmosphere at the theatre psychologically shot scene where the crowd is demanding answers from von Teschen and Norton is using the facial expressions too that might intimidate children. Also the scene at the beach might scare kids and cause nightmares and worries for mother's safety.
  • There is nothing extremely intense or frightening in this film, although there are moments that could be difficult for children or some people.
  • There are two or three chase scenes which can be slightly intense.
