violence
Villainous characters manhandle a boy and hold him captive. In one scene, the boy bites one of his captors, but this is depicted without any injury detail. There are also occasional scenes of bullying in which children lash out and wrestle each other.
threat and horror
Scenes of very mild threat include characters being stuck in a blizzard, and a flying vehicle briefly falling through the air after malfunctioning. There is some emotional upset from characters under threat. However, all scenes of threat quickly come to a positive resolution.
language
Bad language is mild ('crap'), and is accompanied by other milder terms ('hell', 'God', 'damn' and 'morons').
discrimination
Santa is slightly upset by a poem that highlights his weight. A villainous character likens his verbal response to a 'moron'.
alcohol and smoking
There are scenes in which an adult smokes cigars and consumes alcohol, but neither activity is glamourised.
