Good movie for 10 and 12 year old

It's a wet, miserable evening here and I'm trying to think of a movie I could watch with the kids. They don't want a Disney/Pixar type thing. I would like something funny, easy to watch and something they will enjoy.

Any suggestions?

We've been going through the Indiana Jones originals today here and they have gone down a treat with similar ages.

Horrible histories

Mine (10 & 12) have just watched Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz and found it hilarious.
