Home Alone

There are a number of scenes in which violence is inflicted on the two burglars by the child character. However, the violence is always slapstick and comic in nature and there is no focus on realistic injury detail.

The central character is regularly threatened by the burglars trying to break into the house but the focus is on his ingenuity in repelling them. There are also some mild spooky moments, such as when the central character enters the house's basement.

There is occasional mild bad language, such as 'shit' and 'crap'.

There is some mild sexual humour, including the central character finding a copy of Playboy magazine in his older brother's room, although there is no sight of nudity.

There is some mild rude humour, such as a reference to whether French women shave their armpits and, if they don't, why they have nudist beaches.

There are examples of behaviour that might be dangerous if copied. For example, the booby traps devised by the young hero include placing a heating element over a metal door handle and pouring water on stone steps in freezing conditions in order to create a slippery surface. However, it is clear that the boy is setting these traps in order to protect himself and and that such behaviour is not normally acceptable.

There is sight of a red mark on a man's hand after he holds a heated door handleand a mark on a man's face after he is hit with an iron.
