Message
3/5

The importance of family. The importance of being true to yourself. It's OK to be different.

Role model
3/5

Meg thinks for herself. She learns to be appreciative of the kindness others have shown her, even when she's angry with them, thus learning the meaning of unconditional love. Even though he's the "popular kid" in school, Calvin values Meg for who she is. 

Violence
2/5

Some scary imagery concerning "The Darkness" and its effect on some of the lead characters. 

Sex
1/5

Innocent expressions of attraction between a tween girl and boy, like awkward hand-holding. 

Language
1/5

Some verbal bullying. A tween girl is made fun of by other tween girls for crying in school after getting in trouble. A young boy is mocked by other boys while walking home from school because he never talks in class. Name-calling on the order of "weird," "ugly," and "stupid." The mother of one of the lead characters yells at her kids.

Action fantasy adventure in which a character appears to hear voices inside his head from another planet and characters change shape and travel through time; evil appears to control the mind and will of individuals; a giant evil brain churns and draws those unfortunate enough to come into its grasp.
