Parents need to know that Space Jam: A New Legacy is the sequel to 1990s favorite Space Jam. Like its predecessor, it's a mix of live-action and animation ending in an epic game of basketball. It brings back favorite Looney Tunes characters while offering a refresh by casting basketball legend LeBron James as the star. There's some peril/danger: A villain abducts a father and son and then separates them, holding the son for a sort of ransom. And there's plenty of cartoon/slapstick violence in keeping with what we've come to expect from Bugs Bunny and friends: Wile E. Coyote blows things up, Marvin the Martian shoots his ray gun, Yosemite Sam fires pistols. Everyone else suffers smacks in the head, but the worst consequence is seeing birds flying around their head. The nasty Goon Squad is made up of real-life basketball players who've become animated monsters (including a slithering snake); they may be scary to very young children. It's briefly suggested that a couple of animated characters are drinking/have had too much. There are clear messages about teamwork, the need for parents to support their children in exploring their own interests, and that success comes from being yourself.
