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, that you instead use this new 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

Z makes a sarcastic remark to the ant princess about her being part of his "most erotic fantasies," but says that she can now forget that (after he thinks that she no longer likes him).

Other ants comment on Z "bagging" the princess, but the full meaning of that is never explained.

Violence & Gore

A bar bouncer tries to punch Z for being a nonconformist, but the punch lands on Z's friend's gut with no effect. The friend then hits that ant, knocking him into the band, and then punches another bouncer. A brief, but all encompassing barroom brawl then breaks out, with many ants punching and hitting others.

The soldier ants fight similarly motivated termites, resulting in many onscreen deaths (nothing too graphic but showing termites biting and/or eating ants, hitting them with acid, or the ants stabbing termites with their spears) and all but Z are dead by the end of the battle.

One of the evil general's men punches Z's friend trying to get him to talk while being interrogated, and the red abrasions on his face show that they've punched him more than once. They also threaten his girlfriend if he won't talk, and thus he does.

An ant knocks down the general, who then knocks Z and himself over a ledge and into a deep hole (where he is presumably killed upon impact, and Z must be saved after being knocked unconscious in some water).

Profanity

At least 4 damns, 2 hells, 2 craps, 1 ass. A character says quietly but in good humor "stop your bitchin' about"

Some ants drink "aphid beer" in an ant bar, and a scout who tells Z of Insectopia appears to be intoxicated.

A wasp flies drunk after appearing from a discarded bottle (presumably of liquor).

Trapped in their new tunnel, the ants are surrounded by a flood and rising water and try to get out before they all drown. Younger kids may later be upset when it appears that Z has drowned, but of course he turns out to be okay.
