Why Is Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything: A Veggie Tales Movie Rated G?
A theatrical version of the popular VeggieTales series, there is little content in this G-rated animated film to prohibit viewing for nearly any age. Some mild swashbuckling action includes a short battle between two ships with cannonballs flying through the air. In another scene, cannonballs hit and sink a ship, with a crewmember appearing to drown. Sea monsters, rock monsters and other strange critters may cause some momentary fear for the youngest of viewers and characters are in peril on various occasions. Two children are kidnapped and vaguely threatened. In what appears to be a rustic saloon, pirate characters are depicted drinking from beer steins but it is clearly indicated they are drinking root beer.
