Ratings info
Note: The following text may contain spoilers
HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE is a fantasy film which follows the adventures of a young boy and his two friends as they attend their first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
- Threat
There are moments of mild threat, including a scene in which a boy falls into a python pit, a scene in which three friends defeat a troll and another in which a character is chased through a spooky forest. The scary scenes are resolved quickly and moments of tension are balanced by periods of relief or humour.
- Violence
After a boy is threatened by an evil wizard, the young boy presses his hands on the wizard's head and it starts to burn, causing his body to disintegrate. There is also a fantastical chess match, where one of the main characters is attacked with a sword. However, no blows make contact and the character emerges uninjured.
- Language
There are infrequent uses of mild bad language such as 'bugger' and 'bloody'.
It is suggested that a young boy doesn't have a particularly enjoyable home life, but none of these scenes are upsetting.
