Features an iPhone and a box of Milk Duds; minor, standard product placement within the meta-narrative.

Strong language1/5

No bad language; characters express frustration with grunts and shouts.

Romance1/5
Why this rating?

Pete gives Minnie a flirty gaze, and Mickey and Minnie kiss Horace on the cheek at the end. Very mild and innocent.

Mild tension during the chase and kidnapping, but the tone remains light and playful throughout.
