# Mortal Engines - Parental Guide *Mortal Engines* is a visually spectacular sci-fi adventure set in a distant future where mobile cities hunt each other for resources. While the PG-13 rating is appropriate, the moderate action violence and some intense scenes make it best for children 10+. Younger children might find certain moments scary, so consider your child's sensitivity to action and suspense.
