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 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

Zoc pours a magic potion into Lucas' ear while the boy sleeps (it causes him to shrink down to ant size). As the boy shrinks and slides out of bed and down to the floor, we can see (from a distance) that the boy is now nude (since he's grown smaller than his underwear) but we don't see any details. The ants then carry him out nude, but we don't see anything beyond partial glimpses of his bare behind.

After having been nude (from being shrunken out of his clothes), Lucas has some material around his waist. Then, when he's trying to hide from Hova, she asks if he's a male or female, wonders how you tell the difference, and then says, "Oh, that's how" as she gazes down at his hiding spot and apparently sees him fully nude (we don't).

Some insects fly up Stan's pants, hoping to find a way to stop him. As they get toward his crotch, one says, "That looks vulnerable" and one bites or stings him there (we don't see the impact or what part of the anatomy they attack, although the implication is it's his genitals). They then fly out from his butt crack as his pants ride a bit low.

Violence & Gore

As Zoc tries to remove some crystals from a cliff-face, small rocks fall down and land on sleeping ants below him. One of them kicks another to wake him up, followed by more rocks falling, one of which knocks one of those ants out of the camera shot.

Profanity

At least 1 crap and 4 uses of the ant profanity (or colorful phrase) "kraznock."

None

Lucas takes out his frustration about being picked on by a human bully by terrorizing the ant colony in his backyard. He fires his squirt gun at it, with those streams being like rivers of water blasting their mound and washing away various ants (that panic and try to flee). He then kicks the mound, causing more panicking and damage and nearly steps down on Hova with his gargantuan (to them) foot (seen from their POV), but Zoc saves her.

Large, menacing looking wasps attack the ants and lift several of their domesticated caterpillars. Soldier ants fire rocks back at them (hitting some), while one wasp comes after an ant with its large stinger and Zoc saves that ant. Other ants spit out some sort of substance that hits some wasps, while one of them comes after Hova with its large stinger and then lifts off with her (she's later dropped and is okay). Lucas then tries to hide and then run away, as one or more menacing wasps slowly search for him (and he must avoid shafts of sunlight that will incinerate him). As one comes after him with its stinger jabbing around him, he lights a firecracker in which the wasp's stinger gets stuck. The resultant explosion is seen from a distance in the yard where it appears as nothing more than a slight poof.

As Lucas wanders through a swampy area (where he's still miniature), a bug he meets is suddenly gone. Lucas suspiciously eyes the pond in front of him and then tries to run away from a huge frog that leaps after him, trying to seize him with its tongue. Lucas runs and eventually encounters some ants who also then run from the frog. They scale up a vertical surface, but Lucas can't and the frog snatches and eats him (but everything turns out okay).

After being swallowed by the giant frog, Lucas ends up in the stomach along with several bugs and a gooey liquid all around them (all played for comedy, but at one point, one bug sees a friend bug and goes to lift him up from the liquid, but all he retrieves is the bug's severed head).
