Films

Ideas for 11year olds

My ds1 is having a 'movie night' for his 11th birthday. He is having an interesting group of friends coming. Two are fairly 'cool' and will have seen films for older children and one is quite sensitive and does not like anything 'scary '. As a family we have lots of movie nights so ds1 has seen lots of films. So I am really struggling for ideas. It can be old or new but needs to not be too scarey or too tame. Maybe more of a comedy. Any ideas welcome!

Bill and Ted 1 or 2
The Nutty Professor
Dr Dolittle
Johnny English (they're TERRIBLE, but my DC think they are hilarious)
Short Circuit (old classic!)

Or a tiny bit scary:

Jurassic Park
Goosebumps
Zathura
Jumanji

Some great ideas thank you - short circuit is one of my favourites. I will give him a choice from your ideas. Thanks again!
