Common Sense Note
Parents need to know that San Andreas is a disaster movie about a huge earthquake in California. For anyone who's scared of earthquakes (particularly folks living in California), it could be a disturbing or even terrifying experience. There's rampant large-scale destruction: tumbling buildings, people being crushed/nearly crushed, floods, people drowning, etc. There are countless (mostly bloodless) casualties, though some blood is shown -- notably when a metal spike goes through a foot and a shard of glass winds up in someone's leg. A gun is shown, and there's some fighting; a supporting character dies. A young man and a young woman kiss; she's also shown in a bikini and a tight tank top. Language includes one use of "f--k," a few uses of "s--t," and some other words. While massive destruction and disaster are the main points of the movie, there are underlying messages about teamwork and helping people, and the main character is a heroic pilot who risks himself to save others.
