Action movie for 5 year old

Any recommendations? DD and I watched The Sleepover a few weeks ago and she really enjoyed it. We do a cinema night every Saturday at home so I’m looking for an action film again this week.

I think she might find Bumblebee a bit boring. Spy Kids is not on any streaming service but that’s the kind of film I’m looking for.

Other films we have watched that have some kind of action:
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Jumanji
Jurassic Park
Harry Potters
The Goonies
Ghostbusters
Goosebumps

We’ve been doing it for a couple of years so there are probably ones I’ve missed off but we also have done a few classic movies, loads of animated films, lots of comedies too.

All suggestions welcome!

I can’t find The Boy Who Would Be King on Sky despite just watch saying they have it on streaming. So I might do Spiderwick or Spy Next Door as I think they are both on Netflix.

Thank you all so much for your suggestions x

Agree to the Marvel ones being better for older children with longer attention spans, DP falls asleep sometimes Grin

If you’re willing to look at Studio Ghibli there are a few which are quite crazy and action-packed - try Laputa Castle in the Sky or Pom Poko, although she might not take to the fantasy/other wordly feel of them?
