"Hey! Bumboo" follows an innocent talking car on adventures to find her mother, but features strong action violence including battles with villains and thieves. While there's no inappropriate language, sexual content, or horror elements, the frequent combat scenes may be too intense for younger children. Consider your child's sensitivity to action violence before viewing.
