Stuff to be aware of:

Scary - Ghost, the villain in this movie, phases through things and moves in creepy ways. The team visits a creepy looking house. It has the look of a horror movie. When Janet shows up she is in a hood and her face is covered. She is in a dark hallway and the scene is creepy.

Sexual - There is a joke when two characters are talking about how big they got and a joke is made about how they are comparing sizes. Scott and Hope make out in an overly comical way during one of Louise’s stories. Scott and Hope kiss multiple times in more normal ways.

Violence - Plenty of MCU fighting and some blood. There is a man who has a syringe and a group talks about it being “truth serum.” You see the serum put into his arm via a needle.

Other - There is a sad story where a little girl is sitting near her dead parents.

Overall:

Seeing It With Your Family

While watching this I kept thinking this is one of the tamest Marvel movies in the Infinity Saga. There is the normal amount of fighting and cursing, but nothing too sexual and nothing very graphic or scary.

What I Thought

This was a worthy sequel to the original. It continued the character’s stories in a way that moved the franchise forward and continued to grow the MCU.
