What film should we watch tonight?

[mamaduckbone]

Me, Dh, Ds15 and Ds11.

Saturday night is family night, where the teenager graces us with his presence.
We've got Netflix, Disney+, Amazon prime (don't judge, it's lockdown)

We've done Star Wars and Marvel to death.

Ideas PLEASE so we don't sit scrolling and bickering. Thank you!

Groundhog Day.

It's good already and we're only about 15 mins in. I do like a good disaster movie.

We're about an hour in (Greenland) after reading this thread earlier! Bloody hell!! All the emotions. So gripping but cried lots already!

We just watched Oceans 11. 9 and 13 yr old both loves it. I loved watching George and Brad in their prime.

Greenland has gone to the bottom of the list as it's £20 to buy on Prime

Are you sure? Says included with prime on mine and I watched it for free last night.

BIG .

I remember watching Big at the cinema when I was about 13!!

Oh god no, not Big. That is a film that really hasn’t aged well...

Hope you enjoyed it OP.

Maze Runner, Divergent- my two loved them!

Parasite is brilliant.
The Dig is next on our list.

We watched Safety on Disney + last night. It's based on a true story and is centred around American football. My 12 year old really enjoyed it.

We watched Artemis Fowl (2020) on Disney+ with Colin Farrel in it. My kids enjoyed it as it had the right amount of action without it being too scary.

I wouldn't watch Parasite with an 11yr old.

Pride

Another vote for Knives Out. Parasite with an 11 year old? Eek! I watched it with a 15 year old which was just about ok and then made the mistake of agreeing to watch Oldboy by the same director and omg 😱 don't do it

We watched The Martian last night, seen it loads but I love it.

DH and I have been working our way through any disaster movie with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson in it: San Andreas, Skyscraper, Rampage. They’re definitely NOT going to go down in cinema history as the best movies ever made but they are brilliantly silly and a great way to spend 2 hours on a Saturday night.

This morning I now understand why not to watch Parasite with an 11 year old Sorry!

I really want to watch Parasite now (but not with the 11yo it seems!)
Greenland was just the ticket so thank you for the recommendations, and I've got a few more lined up now for the next few weeks. Some great suggestions from the mumsnet hive mind

I'm not sure about Maze Runner, Divergent and that ilk with the 11yo yet - he's got a vivid imagination. We tried Stranger Things, which ds15 loved at about the same age and he didn't get past the first 15 minutes so I have to be a bit careful. The 15yo watches far scarier and more gruesome things than I can stomach with no apparent ill effects. We're watching The Walking Dead with him (when the 11yo is in bed, obviously) and I spend most of the time hiding behind a cushion...

My teenagers enjoyed Dale and Tucker vs Evil (15)

Not free on Prime, but it's been out a while so relatively cheap.

Wrong link for Dale & Tucker

We watched Greenland last night thanks to this thread, Bloody hell it was tense! Really liked it though much better than any other disaster film I've seen.
