Some Like It Hot

After witnessing a hit by the mob, two male musicians disguise themseles as women in an all-female band. Mild comic sex references and some brief and undetailed violence are unlikely to upset even young children.

Violence
There are scenes of mild violence including a scene in which gangsters carry out a mass shooting. The massacre is not very detailed with sight of people falling to the ground, suggesting that they've been hit, but there's no actual sight of impact detail. The violence is mostly without injury detail, but there is brief sight of blood on a character's chest, implying that he's dead. The film also contains a chase sequence in which gangsters shoot guns out of a car, but again, this is all undetailed and with no sight of impact detail.
Sex
There are very mild comic sex references and moments of innuendo throughout. References include a moment in which a man's glasses steam up after getting in bed with a woman, an oblique reference to feeling 'frigid', and comments about the 'rhythm section' of a female band, all of which are quite oblique and without any significant sexual detail.
