Four misfits find themselves struggling with ordinary problems when they are suddenly pulled through a mysterious portal into the Overworld: a bizarre, cubic wonderland that thrives on imagination. To get back home, they'll have to master this world while embarking on a magical quest with an unexpected, expert crafter, Steve
This movie contains 48 potentially triggering events.
A Piglin child has their drawing stabbed. A child makes a jetpack that is sabotaged and explodes (destroying a mascot statue with it) and he has a vision where his notebook is burned.
A child pretends someone unrelated to him is his uncle and lets him pick him up from school. It doesn’t lead to a kidnapping, but the character confirms he’s pretended to be someone’s uncle and done this before.
The male protagonists are chased by Piglins to a cliffside with a body of water underneath it, though they're able to fly over it with Steve's elytra wing suits. There's shots of them appearing to fall in the water before being pulled upwards by the wing suits
The flames dominate the screen before moving to the background. 🔥 Not particularly flashy but rather catches you off guard.
2. 01:04:40 - 01:05:02 series of flashes and explosions
The underground creeper farm scene. Characters are chased by a giant, and creepers (green plant/animal-like creatures) are getting slapped by main characters, and in return it causes bright flashes and explosions. As soon as the Garbage Man (Jason Momoa) starts pushing the underground rail carts, expect flashes and explosions.
3. 01:12:21 - 01:12:46 flashes, strobe lights
This scene happens in-between of another one, where The Garbage Man is fighting in the rink 🥊 🐔 🧟♂️ Henry is searching for something and a tall, fast-moving zombie with glowing purple eyes and sparks around him appears behind Henry. As soon as Henry finds what he wants, expect flashes coming from that purple fast moving giant. The flashes are very bright and high paced. Quite strobey at times.
4. 01:22:37 - 01:24:58 flashes The main fighting action. Starts with Steve (Jack Black) saying to the main antagonist “okay, let’s dance”. There are scattered series of purple flashing sequences that look like a lightning electric discharge flash, mostly coming from a character’s hand. Flashes are pretty bright at times.
Villagers are antisemetic characatures (large noses, bushy eyebrows). The villagers are protected by golems, which also implies Jewish mythology/reaffirms stereotype.
There's a joke where a character is hit in the face by a heavier woman’s rear. One of the Piglins is named “Chungus” which refers to someone being fat derogatorily. Steve is called "roundling" which refers to him not being a Minecraft character but it sounds like a fat joke when the term is initially used with no context.
Steve is whitewashed/played by an actor with lighter skin than the character in the source material. Dawn and Natalie (the former is Black and both are women) are unnecessarily sidelined in favor of the males during the second act, which felt like implicit bias (and there is controversy around Dawn’s general lack of involvement). A character misspeaks Spanish and refuses to be corrected but it’s pretty clear that he’s wrong and that’s the joke.
jennifer coolidge callers herself trash that he needs to take out but he needs to use caution because she’s full of raccoons. the tone is overtly sexual. she also dates a villager
There’s a comedy mid-credits scene with Jennifer Coolidge’s character and the villager. There’s also a short post-credit scene which hints at another character for a possible sequel.
