violence
A classroom scene contains a passing mention of the execution of a historical figure. A child describes a farmer as a ‘turkey torturer’, and refers to turkeys being killed and eaten at Christmas.
threat and horror
Scenes of threat include ones in which characters frantically search for a little girl who has gone missing during a blizzard. The sense of danger is often broken up by comedy, however, and is always resolved in a reassuring manner.
language
Bad language includes ‘flipping heck’, ‘moron’, ‘damn’, ‘shoot’ and ‘God’.
sex
There are very mild references to crushes and dating, and to a woman’s husband having ‘run off’ with a younger woman.
rude humour
A reindeer complains that the cold is turning his ‘unmentionables’ into ‘snowballs’. Another scene features some comic flatulence.
theme
There are very mild upsetting scenes in which characters feel lonely over the Christmas period. For example, a little boy with recently divorced parents is disappointed when his father cancels his Christmas visit. There are also brief, gentle references to off-screen death and bereavement. However, these themes are handled in a sensitive manner, and the overall tone is uplifting.
