I've seen it hundreds (hyperbole, but I've seen it more than 20) of times. Having a robot will not immediately make them sit through lots of thematic risk taking. Having a kung fu panda doesn't mean they can sit through a whole movie under the peach tree. This is a family movie in the true sense, it's supposed to be something the whole family can watch and enjoy. That's exactly what it is. It's typically what Pixar gives us. It's not a kids movie which is why Wall-E didn't fart, but it's not an adult's movie where contemplation is pushed to the limit. As someone who has sat through tons and tons and tons of "kid's" movies with his own actual kids, I can say without a doubt they will not sit through anything. Again, great movie with some flaws.
