violence
A father briefly slaps his son across the legs, and in another scene he locks the boy in a cupboard overnight.
Scenes of violence include those in which a child briefly tries to drown an alien creature in a toilet, children believe the creature to be a toy and try to cut it open below frame, and fight scenes which are often stylised and unrealistic. All of these scenes lack detail.
discrimination
An aggressive child calls a smaller boy a 'dwarf'. A child is fat-shamed, is called a 'monster' by another child, and other children pelt her before she runs away in distress. Discrimination is displayed by negatively presented characters.
additional issues
A man falls off a building and dies; his young child cries, but an alien creature soon brings the man back to life using its special powers.
There is a bullying theme which includes a scene in which children tease and beat up another child. However, there is no significant violent detail, bullying is not condoned by the work as a whole, and the children eventually amicably settle their differences.
There is brief sight of a person's slightly burned arm before he is healed by a fantastical creature, as well as brief sight of blood on a surgeon's glove.
Scenes of toilet humour include one in which an alien creature sprays poo over a child. The creature also comically defecates into a child's hand.
Mild bad language ('turd') occurs, as well as milder terms ('butt').
