Sex & Nudity

  • In one scene Harry and Cho make out with each other.
  • In the hallways in one scene, a couple is making out. It is cut short though when a teacher seperates them.

Violence & Gore

  • In the Department of Mysteries, some kids are getting attacked by Death Eaters and continue fighting. There is a part when the Death Eaters each take a kid from the group, except Harry.
  • As part of a detention, Harry uses a quill that cuts words into his hand, and also uses his blood as ink. Other students receive this punishment, but it isn't as graphic. Some of these students grimace or cry though
  • A centaur shoots an arrow into a giant's arm. It's dark, there's no blood, and it can easily be missed. The giant takes out the arrow calmly
  • Bullies steal a girl's shoes, forcing her to go barefoot in winter; she is not upset and appears unharmed from the experience.

  • Harry and Sirius battle two Death Eaters.
  • Another wizards' duel between Dumbledore and Voldemort.
