Avengers: Age of Ultron - Is it suitable for kids?

I guess it depends on a few factors - how old is your child, how old is your child mentally, have they watched other Marvel movies or The Avengers movie and how did they react to them?

We have an 8 year old, who has watched The Avengers and loved it. He has also stated that we are ALL going to the cinema to watch Age of Ultron. Saying that, we have tried getting him to watch The Mummy (hilarious movie with Brendan Fraser) and he thought it was too scary - while just the other day he watched the first Indiana Jones movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark - and he loved it. Go figure! I guess you have make the educated decision yourself, and be ready to leave the cinema in case it's too scary!

Judging by the trailer, it definitely does seem darker (like the Harry Potter movies that get darker and darker each movie). But if there's a Marvel movie that has either Iron Man or Hulk (and in this case, both) - you know it's bound to be very funny too. If you mix the right amount of well timed funny one liners (very much in the style of Iron Man) throughout a dark super hero movie, I think the little kids and the big kids at heart can definitely cope.

I mean, what kid won't crack up laughing at Hulk slamming Loki about like a rag doll? Puny God.

Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron (released May 2015)



The Marvel franchise is so clever, it appeals to very young kids (Little Golden Books, colour-in books, action figures), the the slightly older kids (story books, computer games and apps) to the adults (games, costumes and not forgetting what started it all, the comic books). So it's no wonder that kids will be asking to watch these movies.
