The main characters interact (involving unintentionally slapping and hurting it) with a very cute baby Octopus at a Chinese food market, and younger viewers may figure out that it's eventually going to be eaten. This could be upsetting.
In one of the first scenes, Skipper goes after a rolling egg. The egg goes over a cliff and Skipper almost falls off the cliff as well. Both Skipper and the egg are fine. Later, the egg is surrounded by leopard seals, but the penguins rescue the egg and escape from the seals.
A film crew pushes the baby penguins off a cliff, but they are fine.
The main villain can look creepy and menacing (he has red eyes, sharp ragged teeth and a human-like face), and has a lot of close-ups. He scared some babies into crying in our audience.
The antagonist mutates penguins into monsters and sets them loose on the population.
