Kristen Bell, Mandy Moore, Sarah Silverman and Auli’i Cravalho voice characters in “Ralph Breaks the Internet.”

“RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET”

>> Rated: PG for some action and rude humor

>> What it’s about: In the sequel to “Wreck-It Ralph,” Ralph and Vanellope explore the internet and learn to have a healthy friendship.

>> The kid attractor factor: The animated characters and broad humor

>> Good lessons/bad lessons: It’s important to have good boundaries in friendships, and codependence can make things fail. Be confident in yourself and people will want to be around you.

>> Violence: Some scaryish chase scenes with a giant King Kong monster made up of tons of needy Ralphs. Some wild car-chase video-game scenes, both in the cutesy “Sugar Rush” game, and in the more adult version, “Slaughter Race.”

>> Language: None, just some more adult humor, whether that’s jokes about pop-up ads or body humor

>> Sexuality: None

>> Drugs: None

>> Parents advisory: Fun for the whole family, appropriate for kids of all ages. Maybe too intense for the youngest kids, and some jokes won’t land with kid audiences.
