violence
A character is shown trying to kill fairies using a kind of poison. Goblins attack with axes and cannons although no human character is ever struck or hurt. There are scenes of slapstick violence in which helmeted goblins are bashed in the head. A character is tormented by goblins who prod him with small biting creatures attached to sticks.
threat and horror
Mild scary scenes include a baby being stolen from its bedroom by goblins and a teenage girl falling into a pit with monstrous hands coming out of its walls to grab at her. Bizarre dancing creatures pull off their own limbs and remove their eyeballs, but can replace them with no injury. Characters are pursued down a narrow corridor by a drill-like machine with spinning blades. These scenes, and other sequences of threat, are fantastical in tone and ultimately have reassuring outcomes.
language
There is occasional mild bad language ('crap'), as well as milder terms such as 'hell' and 'damn'.
sex
A woman tells her teenage daughter she should be dating boys, and a goblin character secretly wishes a girl would kiss him.
rude humour
A goblin creature urinates and fart noises can be heard coming from a fantastical 'bog of eternal stench'.

threat and horror
There are occasional scenes of mild threat, such as a young girl discovering her baby brother has been kidnapped by goblins, falling down a hole where hands reach out for her, and being confronted by a machine with spinning blades and by an axe-wielding monster. Many of these moments are very brief, and are often offset by comic moments.
additional issues
There is infrequent use of very mild bad language ('god'), and scenes of very mild fantasy violence.
