There is only one female character in this film, which is otherwise great. The one female character is also the warrior of the group, and never becomes romantically involved with anyone or considered a token.

I don't precisely disagree with the rating, but it's worth noting that the twins (3 and 4) are portrayed, gender-neutrally, as children, and could just as easily be read as girls rather than boys. However, the movie would still fail the second test, because the twins can't talk.
