Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: parents' guide

Frequent, elaborate sword, spear and hand-to-hand fights, mostly without blood. A thrown blade lodges in a man's forehead, a warrior dies from a poisoned dart, and bandits raid a desert caravan in flashback.

Almost none. A young woman is spitefully called a "whore" once; otherwise the subtitled dialogue is clean.

In a desert flashback, two lovers kiss while lying down and sex is clearly implied, with no nudity, and the romance has several passionate moments. In another scene a woman's soaked shirt shows her nipples.

Wine is drunk in one scene, and a villain uses burning incense to drug a young woman. No other drinking or drug use.

Intense duels and the deaths of major characters, including a slow death by poison, bring real grief. The ending is sad and open to interpretation, as one character leaps from a great height in what may be suicide.
