About See How They Run

In the West End of 1950s London, plans for a movie version of a smash-hit play come to an abrupt halt after a pivotal member of the crew is murdered.

When world-weary Inspector Stoppard (Sam Rockwell) and eager rookie Constable Stalker (Saoirse Ronan) take on the case, the two find themselves thrown into a puzzling whodunit within the glamorously sordid theater underground, investigating the mysterious homicide at their own peril.

Age Rating For See How They Run: Is It Safe For Teens When It Comes To Sex, Romance, and Nudity?

There is no sex or true nudity in the movie.

We do see a man in his underwear a few times. And there is an artistic charcoal drawing of a woman from the back who is naked, so you see a bit of her bum.

There is some romance and discussion of infidelity, but there isn’t anything racy or concerning happening on screen. Characters kiss.

Overall, this parents guide votes that See How They Run is ok for most teens and tweens to watch on this scale.

Characters are cheating on their spouses in this movie and a child born out of wedlock is discussed.

They are also shown drinking alcohol and some are drinking to drunkenness.

Violence and Gore: Is See How They Run Too Scary For Kids Under 13?

This is a murder mystery in the same vein as an Agatha Christie novel. In fact, she’s central to the story.

If your family has watched movies such as Death on the Nile, they would likely not be concerned with the death, violence and light gore they will see in See How They Run.

Characters are murdered, guns are fired, and there are physical altercations.

There is some blood shown, but nothing is too gory for the viewer to see. There is talk of a man’s tongue being cut out but from a visual, you really don’t see this happen or the aftereffects.
