Making The Grades...

The MPAA has not rated 3 2 1 Penguins: Trouble on Planet Wait-Your-Turn .

Back to full review

Overall: A-
Two squabbling children learn about the virtue of patience from their grandmother, and four crazy space faring penguins in this comedic yet educational computer animated story, from the makers of Veggie Tales.

Violence: A-
Characters nit-pick with each other on several occasions. TV emits some electrical sparks and smoke when a child tries to tamper with it. Characters grapple over objects. Child narrowly escapes being hit by a ladder. Slapstick humor implied with the spaceship's bumpy landing, and characters tangle with a vacuum cleaner. Characters are in peril of over heating and burning up.

Sexual Content: A
None.

Language: A
At least: 1 "fishy" expletive, and some unusual terms of endearment.

Alcohol / Drug Use: A
None.

Miscellaneous
Several rather unpleasant sounding foods are discussed (such as frog brains and kidney pie). Children enter a secret and possibly forbidden room.
