What it’s about: Unlikely buddy cops Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde tackle another case of corruption in Zootopia, where all animals live together in somewhat harmony.

Language: None — some naughty humor.
Sex: None

The kid attractor factor: This is an adult drama, not much appeal for kids.
Good lessons/bad lessons: Art has the power to provide healing catharsis and communication.
Violence: A devastating death scene. Some familial abuse.
Language: None
Sex: A sex scene with partial nudity.
Drugs: None
Parents’ advisory: Too mature for younger kids but OK for older kids (if interested) and teens.
