Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that, instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, you use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.

Sex & Nudity

Sex & Nudity: 3/10

In a few of the scenes containing Jabba the Hutt, there is an human-looking alien-girl that in a very revealing outfit that is chained to his throne.

When the Max Reebo Band plays in Jabba's palace, the alien girl seductively dances in a see through outfit, and plenty of her body is visible (no "areas" are shown).

Leia wears a metal bra and a metal bikini while she's Jabba's slave. (Close to nudity.) There's also a cape worn around her butt, and we can see the sides of her butt.

A few mild kisses and signs of affection.

Violence & Gore

Violence: 6/10

A space battle has spacecrafts being destroyed on both sides.

A land battle has several creatures and people are shot and killed (no blood).

Two people are shot in the arm and hand in great detail.

Lightsaber fight where a robotic hand is sliced off. No blood in any of the previously mentioned due to science fiction weaponry.

Some people are attacked by heavy objects.

A character is nearly electrocuted to death. He screams and begs for help from his father.

A villain throws another villain down a shaft where he explodes at the bottom and also slashes two stormtroopers

A creature is eaten by a larger creature.

A mans battered body is helplessly pulled across the ground to a ship. there, his helmet is removed. While this scene is touching, his head is very pale a very scarred. may be very disturbing to some viewers.

An Ewok gets killed in an explosion.

Jabba the Hutt is strangled to death

Profanity

Profanity: 1/10

No swearing, just a few insults

Alcohol, Drugs, Smoking: 1/10

Jabba smokes something.

Intense Scenes: 4/10

Luke is ejected into Jabba's monster pit and is confronted by a huge, dinosaur-sized monster (that will definitely scare little kids). A "pig guard" of Jabba's is picked up and eaten (with crunching sounds). The monster then chases and nearly catches Luke, but he finally kills the beast by slamming a metal gate on it.

Luke and his friends are led to the pit of a giant desert monster to be fed alive. Luke is the first to walk the plant to drop from a small craft, but with his friends in position to help him, he twists and uses the plank as a springboard to jump back and begin the battle against Jabba the Hutt's gang.

Emperor Palpatine looks very scary for some viewers and has a creepy voice.

Darth Vader's real face may frighten some--it is chalk white and scarred.

the scene where Luke is being electrocuted is VERY intense & disturbing
