On netflix or Amazon prime... They're 12and 14 and every time I find a "good exciting" film there's always some kind of sexual implications or scene that makes us all cringe and it's uncomfortable.
Any good suggestions?
Thank you!

Great thank you! Going to look up the Martian...
Saw bfg several years, more for when they were young children...
It's a difficult phase - too old for the "children's" films but not quite ready for the adult.
There are few 12 rated films out there...

Locke and Key - it's like a slightly more grown up Spiderwick Chronicles.

TwigTheWonderKid · 28/03/2020 18:45

Hunt for the Wilderpeople is great!

Standrewsschool · 04/04/2020 10:32

Kick -Ass and Kick -Ass 2 - just watched these two film. They have a rating of 15, due to violence in them. Entertaining films, which we enjoyed.

Life of Pi

LargeGinOnTap · 04/04/2020 12:32

The oceans films are on Netflix's now.

I don't think there's any romance in them they just try to heist casinos etc.
Haven't seen them for ages so they might have dated horribly.

zelbazinnamon · 04/04/2020 12:34

Jane Austen films?

LittleSweet · 04/04/2020 12:43

San Andreas
Jumanji the new one.
Percy Jackson
Hunger Games

LittleSweet · 04/04/2020 12:43

I really enjoyed Locke and Key.

Besom · 04/04/2020 12:47

I've wondering about Locke and Key. Dd is 12 and yes it is a bit of a tricky age.

bruffin · 04/04/2020 16:50

Sing Street
Begin Again

Standstilling · 06/04/2020 09:55

Divergent and the next two on Amazon Prime. Actually hooked all 3 DC (14, 12 and 9) - unheard of. And I didn’t mind it either.

Merlin is on Netflix, it's five series worth and we're really enjoying it. I think it would work for that age.

Justonemoremojito · 06/04/2020 14:45

We're working our way through star wars although 6 & 7 over here! But detective pikachu, new aladdin, sonic film?
