A cat gets dehydrated into a blue cube and rehydrates back into a cat in the rain. It doesn’t get hurt, but does make the traditional cat-in-a-movie yowl.

Spoiler
The main character is an alien and due to some part of the plot, he transforms himself into a human. In his human form he begins to date the main woman character, so leading a double life. At a restaurant, they kiss each other, but his device that turns him into a human breaks, and he transforms back into an alien mid kiss. The woman opens her eyes and is horrified at being deceived. So I would count this as assault because of this, it’s assault by deceit

There is, technically; it’s made pretty explicitly clear that it’s really only the characters playing into their ‘designated roles’ (it is, to be honest, a pretty satirical take on superhero films) and it’s obvious there are no sinister motivations or ulterior motives.

The villain spoils some magic for kids. They try to mitigate it by inserting something real, so you don't know if he's really spoiling or just "full-of-beans" but it skates the line pretty closely!
Titan: "You're so naive, Roxy. You see the good in everyone, even when it's not there. You're living a fantasy. There is no Easter Bunny. There is no Tooth Fairy. There is no Queen of England. This is the real world, and you need to wake up!"
