OK for kids?

Well, when I was 8 the sight of large numbers of walking, talking, fighting skeletons would have given me screaming nightmares for about six weeks, but today's kids seem to be more inured to that kind of thing than I was.

For most of the movie it's just regular actors, but some of the characters look like skeletons by moonlight, and there are a few long scenes with a rather ghastly aspect to them as a result. Still, it was rated PG, I believe -- gruesome, but not really gory. It certainly didn't scare or upset me now.

Your boys would probably like it.
