Any ideas?? He likes James Bond and we done all of them. Also Avengers ones which I don't really like but we watched.

We watched Knives Out but none of us loved it!

We've done the Harry Potters, Spy and The Hangover. Shock

He doesn't like scary stuff

All the Jurassic Park ones are good - Jurassic World, etc. Also, "The Lost World", TV miniseries with Bob Hoskin.

Stuff with Dwayne Johnson, I saw him in a film with Michael Cane on TV a while back in which Michael Cane rode on giant bees! Dwayne Johnson as Hercules.

When mine was young I let him choose his own stuff to watch and I watched mine, I tended to go for more serious stuff but sometimes all of us would sit down together and enjoy something. In those days it was, "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure", "Wayne's World" and "Kevin and Perry Go Large".

How old is he? My ds is 11 and enjoyed the Men in Black series. depending on his age maybe Mission Impossible? Oh and ds had a dvd for Xmas that he loves it's Called Skysraper (with Dwayne Johnson in), about well... a skyscraper on fire. In my day we had a version called The Towering Inferno!

We've just got Disney+ and so far DS has loved The Mighty Ducks, Cool Runnings, and Honey I Shrunk The Kids!

Have you seen Bridge to Terebitha?
It's not similar to those you've mentioned but I'd really recommend it.

Cool Runnings, RV, Indiana Jones - all good
