Content:

(B, V, L) Heartwarming, extremely pro-family movie marred by a smattering of slapstick violence (hitting police officer, car hangs from top of building with passengers inside, door slammed on man's nose, reckless driving, child runs through a wall, destruction of property, exploding airplane, & girl gagged & bound) and one exclamatory profanity which could be construed as an exclamatory prayer.
