Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that Angels Sing is a family-friendly holiday film about finding your Christmas spirit. The music-centric film features a star-studded cast, including Willie Nelson and Lyle Lovett. Although there is a little scary stuff with two characters dying in accidents, everything is behind the scenes and no graphic violence is shown. And, with no sex, little bad language (one "damn" in a song), and only one vague reference to alcohol, the film is OK for tweens and up.

Sexual Content

Violence

Two characters die, including a main character, though both deaths aren't actually shown on-screen. Another main character is injured in a car accident.

Language

"Damn" is used once in a Christmas song.

Social Behavior

Besides the main positive message of holiday spirit and cheer, Nick teaches Michael about family: "What ties a family together? It's not the blood, it's not the same last name -- it's the memories."

Consumerism

Although Michael tries to argue that Christmas has become an example of excess consumerism, his family and new neighbors show him the real meaning of Christmas.

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

One character shows up to Thanksgiving with a bottle of tequila in hand, but no mention is made of it and no one is shown drinking it.
