Sex & Nudity

WALL·E does discover (and innocently play with) a discarded bra.

Violence & Gore

There is no gore. The character of EVE does shoot a futuristic, fictional gun, but she does not hit any characters, only inanimate objects (a TV screen, the hull of a spaceship, etc.).

There is a quick shot in the film where one robot character falls some distance and breaks apart upon hitting the ground.

Profanity

Shelby Forthright uses a few minced oaths in his recorded messages. He says "Darn it all..." and "Let's get the heck outta here."

None. In fact, WALL·E keeps a "no smoking" sign in his truck.

It is of note that the scenes described in this section are NOT overtly disturbing or graphic in any way, but since small children vary in their sensitivity to these depictions, it is practical to note them here.

With a setting built on a future culture of extreme consumerism, including a trash-covered and uninhabitable Earth and the infantilization of humanity, the overall film is quite deep and thematically dark for a G-rated movie.

Very early in the movie, a rocket ship lands almost exactly on top of WALL·E. It is loud and can be scary, partially because the movie theater is designed to make the viewers vibrate with the loud noise but also because children can see that WALL·E himself is shivering with fright as he tries to hide. This is followed by scenes in which the robot EVE uses her powerful and loud gun to fire at WALL·E and his pet insect.

The captain of the Axiom spaceship gets into a physical struggle with the ship's wheel, an autopilot robot named AUTO. He is thrown around and jabbed in the eyes at least once.

There is also a very emotionally intense sequence involving WALL·E and AUTO. Be aware that as a major part of the plot this is a significant spoiler that may reduce your enjoyment of the movie to know in advance:

AUTO severely damages WALL·E over the course of two scenes, first using a taser-like arm attachment to damage him and drain his batteries, then later crushing the almost-drained WALL·E under a piece of machinery. After being crushed, WALL·E is completely inanimate (unmoving, silent), though he is fully repaired a few scenes later by EVE.

One scene depicts WALL·E losing his memory and is depicted in an upsetting manner.
