Star Wars: The Clone Wars is officially rated PG. Bontent's independent parent guide recommends it for ages 7+.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars is an animated entry in the franchise focusing on Anakin Skywalker and his new apprentice, Ahsoka Tano, as they embark on a rescue mission. Rated PG for pervasive sci-fi action, the film consists primarily of stylized, bloodless combat between Jedi, clones, and droids. Parents should be aware…

There is no explicit content. Some female characters, including Ahsoka Tano, wear form-fitting attire, and a brief, dark silhouette shows two creatures kissing in the background. A few scenes feature background characters dancing in a club setting.

The film features constant sci-fi combat, primarily involving lightsabers and laser blasters. Characters are frequently shot or caught in explosions, though the stylized, animated nature of the violence keeps it bloodless and largely focused on droid enemies…

Language is very mild. One instance of the word 'damn' occurs during a military tactical discussion.

There is a brief moment where a character is seen smoking from a hookah pipe.

The narrative focuses on war, political betrayal, and kidnapping. Characters face constant threats of execution and imprisonment throughout their mission.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars runs 98 minutes, directed by Dave Filoni, released in 2008.
