Alice Through the Looking Glass

DD's friend's mum has offered to take DD to the cinema tomorrow and has suggested Alice Through the Looking Glass. DD and her friend are both six. Her friend watches an awful lot of films including, I believe some quite grown up/scary ones. DD's exposure to films has been minimal and she scares easily (really didn't like Brave and has been known to have nightmares about goblins from bedtime stories)

The imdb website doesn't give much away other than to say that it's "PG for thematic elements and sequences of fantasy action violence, including scary images." DD's not having any of it though and is determined to see it. She loves Alice in Wonderland having seen the year 6 production at my school last year and wants to see what happens next. I've shown her the trailer in a bid to put her off but she really wants to see it, despite all the very scary looking stuff we've seen already.

So, finally getting to the point: has your six year old seen it? And, more to the point, has your slightly fearful six year old seen it and been ok? Ordinarily I'd want to watch something like this with her at home on dvd so we can turn it off if it's too much, but I just know she'll want her friend and friend's mum to think she's ok and enjoying it.

She's currently sulking in her bedroom because I've said I don't want her to go. Am I being precious?
