Parents advised reading before viewing the film as some scene may contain scenes unsuitable for younger viewers.

Sex & Nudity: Moana, Yesss, and Jasmine wear clothes that bare their midriffs
Ralph and Venelope come across a store called "Lingerie", Ralphs asks what's that and she says it looks like they sell large baby clothes as they see an image of a short dress / modest babydoll outfit (?)

Violence & Gore:

• A dog is swallowed whole by a shark. Not gory but will probably be used as a jump scare. Later the dog is shown to be alive (along with 2 others) inside the shark's mouth.
• 2 player's avatars are burned to death by flamethrowers. Nothing is shown but chalk lines where they used to stand. Players are shown after complaining they have to start over. (not really that violent, but this is the most "violent" scene in the movie.)
• A video game character is almost crushed to death by a giant
• 2 video game characters almost fall to their deaths.
• A video game character is almost permanently deleted when a game reboots.
• In the after credits, a bunny is over-fed and explodes. Although this is offscreen a small child screams because of this and children may find this disturbing.

Profanity: 

• Various made-up vulgarities such as "mother of monkey milk", but not nearly as many as the first movie.
• "Mothertrucker" Used once but is hard to hear.

Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking:

• Ralph says to Felix at Tappers - I didn't know you drank rootbeer! Felix replies - I do now! (after having just "adopted" 15 teenagers)

Frightening/Intense Scenes: 

•  Ralph overfeeds a rabbit to the point of bursting. Although the explosion isn't seen, a little girl is obviously scared by it. This may be disturbing for some, but this is done for a comedic effect.
• The Racing game has lots of explosions, car crashes such as seen in the preview, plus scary clowns, looters, misc. mayhem going on constantly.

Story: Taking place six years after saving the arcade from Turbo's vengeance, the Sugar Rush arcade cabinet has broken, forcing Ralph and Vanellope to travel to the Internet via the newly-installed Wi-Fi router in Litwak's Arcade to retrieve the piece capable of saving the game.

Likes: There are a few issues I have with this film that let it down although it a great film for the kids and Ignorant adults, There is not a lot really I can say that great about this film although it does give a true representation of the internet with the stupid pop-ups, because they are kind of annoying.

The film does try to teach kids about friendship and not to be selfish not that kids at a young age will take this message in, the film does have a few moments where it funny.  Animation and acting is pretty solid with smooth animation, but sadly this is all I can say that good, not that it, not a great film for the kids this film lack what the first film had with a lot of flaws.

Dislikes: 

• My one major gripe with the film in disney fashion with the sjw Fenimst political agenda with the Disney princess, this is teaching kids the wrong message should never have been put in this film. That pull this film enjoyment down for my personal as a film like this should have politically brought in to it.

• The film felt more of an Advertisement to disney starwars with eBay, YouTube, Instagram, Google and Facebook than actually focused the story on Raplh and glitch, although there are moments that are good with Ralph and glitch the film is way to focused on advertisements it teaching the kids that internet is a great place to get things.

• The biggest flaw in the film is the incoherent continuity from the first film, Ralph in the first film was an arrogant self-centred character with a selfish nature which through the film his charact learns the error of his ways and become a better person for it by the end of the film. With this sequel is seem like they ignored the story before and give Ralph that Self centre arrogant nature back when this was dealt with in the first film, there just no continuity in the writing here. 
• Which could've been better written, not that it a letdown, just that the first film was better because it focused more on the character building friendships with a Nostalgia with the old 8-bit and 16-bit character of the 80s, Sadly this film doesn't continue that story and goes in the direction. 

Overall: a Great film for kids, but the flawed and incoherent story lets it down with Politicalical agenda driven moment

Rating: 5 out of 5 for Entertainment / 6.8 out of 10 for sequel
