The only problem with this movie is just that it seems to be putting what could be told in 1 hour and 45 minutes into a 2 hour and 21 minute movie. There are 3 murders, it is just by hanging, nothing too bad or modern (also unless your kid is a Boy or Girl Scout they should know how to tie a noose), 2 shots of attempted murder (drowning and hanging), a sword fight (Raoul gets stabbed in the arm and I am not counting this as attempted murder). Erik's deformity isn't that bad compared to earlier versions of him (like the 1920s silent movie), but it is still a deformity and might freak out younger kids at first.
There is some making out but very brief (unless you count that one scene where Meg looks at that couple in between Think of Me and Angel of Music but you probably just now realized that as I just told you). In the song The Point Of No Return, there is one line that says,"What sweet seduction lies before us" and other than that, not too sexy (unless you want to talk about Love Never Dies.). Beautiful music, there are some cuss words, but only "damn", "damnable", "hell", and that is pretty much it. You may also know that Erik is much older than Christine, but I think he is 27 and she is 16. As you may know, Erik (the Phantom's name that is never mentioned and only true Phans know) stalks Christine and is madly in love with her. My sister started watching it when she was 7, but I think 7 is a little young so I chose 9.
While the stream is free, all those who watch are highly encouraged to donate and proceeds will go to The Actors Fund, Acting for Others, Broadway Cares, Actors Benevolent Fund, and other charities.POTO has forever changed my life.
