Common Sense Note

We all remember the lovable film Chitty Chitty Bang Bang from our youth, right?

By chance, I came across the following "common sense note" on Netflix to parents considering allowing their children to watch the film:

"Parents need to know that in the beginning of the movie, the Potts children are dirty and skipping school, which seems to be the norm. Although the single father played by Dick Van Dyke raises his kids loosely, he loves and cares for them and shares his abundant imagination with them (...) Violence: The Baron pursues Chitty and the Potts in a zeppelin and shoots at them. The Baron tries unsuccessfully to do his wife in, depicted comically."
