This was a truly beautiful, affecting, and breathtaking film. That said, parts are very intense and sometimes quite violent and rather grotesque. It's a lovely film in the tradition of Miyazaki, but as with certain other Miyazaki films (e.g., Princess Mononoke), it's better suited to more mature children and adults. It was a bit much for my younger two children, and I regret having ignored the MPAA rating in favour of the Common Sense Media suggestion. I think the MPAA had this one right.
