Not as far as bad content, but is it interesting enough to have them sit through it? My kids do occasionally watch movies that aren't just for kids.

If not, then I guess we'll go see Astro Boy....
 
I heard the movie over all got bad reviews, but I think the OP was asking on whether the content was appropriate for children. You know--do they do grown-up things in it that kids shouldn't watch?

I took his post as can a kid sit through it since he said he was not worried about content.
 

Here are the cautions listed on a Christian movie review site.

That way you can determine if your children should see it or not:

CAUTIONS:



•Language/Profanity: Lord's name taken in vain; "removed so as not to violate filter rule" and multiple instances of foul language.
•Smoking/Drinking/Drugs: A few scenes of drinking and smoking; an endorsement deal for cigarettes; a navigator with a drinking problem says it's never interfered with his work, but under the influence of alcohol, he propositions Earhart.
•Sex/Nudity: Kissing; Earhart sleeps with Putnam and Vidal; shot of her sitting by bed after sex, with sheets turned back, and Putnam shown without his shirt on, she in a nightie.
•Violence/Crime: Plane crash footage.
•Marriage/Family: Earhart marries reluctantly, then has an affair but returns to her husband; Earhart says she won't hold her husband to a medieval code of faithfulness, and that he shouldn't expect the same from her; during wedding vows, she says she can't abide the "obey" part; a betrayed husband finds his wife's love letter to another man, and reads it back to her.
•Religion: Earhart asks Putnam to pray for her, and when he says he's not much of a praying man, she asks him to tip his hat and cross his fingers; exclamations such as "Praise be!" and "Glory, hallelujah!" after a major accomplishment; when Earhart insists on flying through bad weather, a character tells her, "In a monsoon, you need divine help."

Hope this helps. I removed the profanity as it was asterisked out in the review, but I didn't want to get in trouble for violating filter rules.

Not too bad, but it also sounds like it might be too boring, based on all the posts... Thanks.
