# The Fugitive - Parental Guide
This PG-13 action thriller follows a wrongfully convicted man escaping prison to find his wife's real killer. While it contains strong violence including gunfire and physical confrontations, language and sexual content are mild. Given the intense action sequences and darker themes, it's better suited for older children and teenagers rather than younger viewers.
