If you could have a superpower, what would it be? Sibling characters can be supportive of each other and loving, though they often fight. There is some swearing but if your kid is mature, they will be fine. One character is depicted as a drug addict; we see him scoring drugs in an alley, taking handfuls of pills, drinking tumblers of whisky.
What makes the story interesting is a hunt for the next Easter egg reference to an old movie plot line.

Characters grapple with heady notions like obligations conferred by family ties, damage caused by disrespect and unkindness from an authority figure. So very very sad that throughout this series they glorify the use of drugs and alcohol. But this show takes it to the limit, and as time goes on, the emotional stakes of the show deepen, which makes the action and villainy more exciting and sets this show apart from similar outings. Airing on Netflix this past Friday, I was able to finish the ten part series in four days. Wow, just wow. The toll it's taken on his life is clearly shown. This is a great show that I allow my 11 year old daughter to watch. But when Hargreeves dies mysteriously -- and when a character missing for over a decade reappears, warning that eight days from now, a fiery apocalypse destroys all of humanity -- the gang teams up again for a major mission. stylish, imaginative. This had such potential to become a great family series, at least for older kids. You will think from the image of young kids in the show that it will be appropriate for kids. But my children will not get to see this is a long while (oldest is 10).
