# Source Code - Parental Guide
**Source Code** is a complex sci-fi thriller featuring a soldier repeatedly reliving a train bombing to prevent a terrorist attack. While rated PG-13 with only mild language and sexual content, the strong violence and intense, confusing plot make it better suited for mature teens than younger children. Consider your child's tolerance for suspense and sci-fi concepts before viewing.
