I strongly suggest you read a few review by parents and kids, and also know your kids very well before seeing this film.
We haven't, and won't be seeing this movie in the theater. We've been hearing other families' experience with this movie the most agree this is darker than the last Harry Potter, should not be PG, and even a couple of teenagers begged their parents to leave the movie. Our 11 year old will not handle the sinister theme of evil that runs through it, demons, kids cutting their hands for blood rituals (shown), an orphan who's image of his dead mother is used to manipulate him. This sounds more like a kids' horror movie than just a scary, mysterious story.
Some of her friends are going to see it in the theater; and if she wants to see it after hearing what her friends say, we'll Redbox it at home where the screen is small and we can mute and FF if we want.
