Sex & Nudity

Mild
34 of 80 found this mild
A hippo flirts strongly with another hippo, who tells her several times how much he likes her body. Some additional mild romance.
Gloria's rear gets stuck in a doorway, suggestive for some viewers.
Gloria's big belly and swirly navel maybe suggestive for some viewers.
We see a male hippo's butt as he walks to a female hippo. Played for laughs.

Violence & Gore

Mild
27 of 41 found this mild
The dreamworks boy gets beaten up by private.
Zuba is shot at and falls. We see that the lion was struck by a bullet in the ear (there is a part of the ear missing and a bit of blood is visible).
Two lions argue about being in charge and they fight: one pounces on the other and we hear commotion hidden by tall grass, and we then see one twisting the arm of the other until he relents.
Alex is struck hard by another lion, and is thrown back against a large stone that cracks in half and lies on the ground for some time (we see the lion with a black eye).
A shark falls into a volcano.
Nana and Alex fight: they punch each other in the face repeatedly, Nana kicks and punches Alex, then pinches his chest (where nipples would be), Alex spits out a tooth, and Nana spits out her dentures.
Nana beats Makunga repeatedly and drags it away by the ear. Earlier, Nana is thrown out of a moving jeep and lands on the road (she's OK); she is then struck by the jeep and thrown (she's OK).
Two lions are carried in a bucket dangling from under a plane and are dragged through a dam that is broken.
A lion drops a huge rock on another lion's head to wake it up.
A shark lunges out of water and chases Mort on land, snapping at it as they go.

Profanity

Mild
17 of 39 found this mild
During the plane scene private puts on a floaty but it pops and while that happens he says "Kiss your *floaty pops* goodbye" implying he was going to say "ass"

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

None

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild
25 of 39 found this mild
Nana beats up Alex and beats up Makunga. This is cartoonish and played for laughs.
None/Moderate for neurodivergent viewers.
There is a long and drawn-out scene in which the airplane is falling, and it seems as if it will crash land. At the last second, the penguin flying the plane pulls up on the steering wheel and the plane levels out.
