Certification
Sex & Nudity
-
- During a meeting between two brother rabbits and the chief rabbit, the chief mentions that they're in the middle of May, which is mating season.
- Infriquent mild references to the need of does (female rabbits) to sustain the warren.
Violence & Gore
-
- A rabbit threatens to kill another rabbit. He bites a tuft of fur off of said rabbit but is jumped on before he can do anything else. No blood is shown
- Fiver sees a vision of a field of blood symbolising the warren's destruction.
- A rabbit is attacked and killed by a hawk off-screen.
- A rabbit is found beaten, he is covered in scars. Another rabbit has his ears torn as a punishment.
- A rabbit gets shot offscreen. We see his wound getting healed onscreen.
- Two rabbits are hit by a train.
- There's a lot of blood especially for a PG movie.
- The overall violence is moderate level. It solely involves animals (predominantly rabbits), but it can still get pretty disturbing.
Profanity
-
- A black-headed gull tells one rabbit to piss off. The word "damn" is also used.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
-
- A rabbit finds a smoldering cigarette near a fence post, which he seems to fear will start a forest fire.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- The violence depicted in this film is notoriously shocking and disturbing (some scenes where large quantities of blood and gore are clearly visible).
- Several scenes contain very strong, potentially nightmarish images.
- A particularly frightening scene shows rabbits being gassed underground, their heads then form an abstract ghostly head of a rabbit.
- In the climatic sequence, a rabbit is caught by a cat who is able to kill him, but the cat's human guardian orders her to back off before she does any harm.
- The music and general mood of the film is rather bleak, surreal, and intense.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Hazel is shot in the leg, but he survives. There is a bloody bullet hole in the leg that was shot. The bullet is removed from the wound, and the rabbit requires time to heal. For the rest of the film there is a scar where he was shot.
- A rabbit is nearly choked to death in a snare, he coughs out blood. Very violent. It appears he is dead, however, we soon learn this is not true. A rabbit is found beaten, he is covered in scars. Another rabbit has his ears torn as a punishment. For the rest of the film, his ears are disfigured. A rabbit is shot in the leg, but he survives. There is a bloody bullet hole in the leg that was shot. The bullet is removed from the wound, and the rabbit requires time to heal. For the rest of the film there is a scar where he was shot. Two rabbits are hit by a train.
- In the final battle, which is likely the goriest scene in the movie, a rabbit has his throat torn out by another rabbit onscreen. We then see his body, he has a large hole in his neck, and blood is everywhere. General Woundwort and Bigwig fight nearly to the death, causing both of them to bleed. They bite each other in a way that almost looks cannibalistic. Next, a dog is unleashed upon the rabbits, he bites and tears up many of them. One is even shown being thrown high into the air by the dog, and falling back down, covered in blood. Finally, it is implied that Woundwort is killed off-screen by the dog, no blood or violence but still very frightening.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- The film has a sad story because the rabbits are trying to find a new home and they encounter other rabbits that are infected which attacks them.
- In the epilogue, one of the main heroes, very old years after the story's main action, dies peacefully at the gentle suggestion of the rabbit personification of Death who also assures him that his warren will prosper in safety without him.
