The kid attractor factor: None for this philosophical horror flick.

'BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER'
Rated PG for thematic material and brief underage smoking.

The kid attractor factor: The kid-friendly story and group of young actors, plus the holiday factor.
Good lessons/bad lessons: The most profound lessons can come from the most unexpected people. Never forget that Christmas is about kindness toward the unfortunate among us.
Violence: Some scraps among kids.
Language: None
Sex: None
Drugs: Kids briefly smoke a cigar.
Parents’ advisory: Fine for kids of most ages, might not appeal to the youngest ones.
