The two main characters believe the title kangaroo is dead after they hit him with their car, but he is actually alive.

The pilot character represents the constantly inebriated Aussie stereotype. He drinks heavily during the scene at the bar.

Charlie and Louis think they killed the title kangaroo. Charlie wants to move it aside, but Louis gets photos and dresses it up. The kangaroo turns out to be alive, however. Seen as disrespect of an injured animal.

Charlie grabs Jessie's breasts right after she shows up. He thinks she is a mirage but she is actually there, so she ends up whacking him in the head.

No seizures but there are jokes about epilepsy in the movie. The joke is made twice. Louis uses strange body gestures to show he thinks Jessie is attractive, but Charlie thinks this means she is epileptic.

There are no parent deaths during the movie. In the beginning, however, Charlie mentions that his father passed away.

Well, they shower under a waterfall at some point, but the furtest this movie goes is showing a guy without a shirt

The bad guy uses the word "pansy" right before using the R-word to insult the main characters.

Not hate speech per say but there are quite a large number of slurs in this kids' movie.

There are a lot of sexual jokes in here that range from mild to full on assault. Examples include an implied romantic relationship between Charlie and Louis that is played up for laughs, a scene where Charlie asks Louis to reach down his pants (for scissors) before Louis tells him to have some self-control (he then starts talking about a well-built Latino(?) before getting cut off), and a scene where Charlie grabs Jessie's chest without her consent.

Jackie Legs, the kangaroo, is hit by a car. None of the human characters are hit by a car, however.
