Avatar: The Way of Water
A visually spectacular sci-fi sequel rated PG-13, running over three hours, centered on family survival and large-scale combat on an ocean world. The final hour is dominated by sustained battle sequences, and several scenes involve children in direct danger.

Soldiers arrive, threaten villagers with guns, use tasers, shoot and kill a creature, and burn down a large section of forest with flamethrowers.
Soldiers threaten villagers, deploy cattle prods, and shoot an animal on screen.
Human whalers pursue and kill a tulkun using explosive harpoons, then drill into its skull to harvest a substance; the creature's intelligence and its bond with Metkayina characters make the scene emotionally intense.
