I have a house full of ten year old boys for a sleepover. Hopefully I can get them to watch a film from 10pm ish instead of leaping around and playing endless Xbox, what films should I suggest?

Home Alone, Night at the Museum, original Willy Wonka, the Goonies

One of the Marvel ones seem to keep that age group entertained, some are for older age rated but there are loads that they could watch.

My nephew is ten and his favourite film is RatRace. He gurgles like a drain ask the way through it.

My 10 year old enjoyed Men In Black

Cool Runnings - my boys LOVE this.

Pigeonqueen · 13/04/2024 21:08

Bumblebee
Ghostbusters afterlife
Freeguy
Anything Jurassic Park

(although I think some of these are 12As so maybe not suitable if you’re not sure they’ll be okay with watching them or if their parents might not be)!

Lego movie

Love this film. My 11 year old ds watched it a few days ago and adored it too.

AGodawfulsmallaffair · 13/04/2024 21:10

The Goonies

TakingTheHorseToFrance · 13/04/2024 21:11

Jaws. Kids watched it last week and were enthralled

tangycheesythings · 13/04/2024 21:12

Yes the Goonies!

Was going to say The 'Burbs, but the Goonies is even better
