I watched a good part of this movie on CN not too long ago. Judging mainly by the language, and also by the violence/scariness, I rate this movie off for ages 9 and under. If you watched a version on TV that bleeped the swearing, that version may be iffy for ages 9-10.

A good movie. It has major name-calling from Walter and Josh. The plot is very clever, and there is a lot of good special affects.

this movie was good but what made me dissapointed was that kids as young as 6 said the worst swears that have only heard mid teenagers say. Also there is lots of vilonce and peril. I would recomend this to kids 8-13. but if your child is JUST 8 years of age i would give a pause but not so much for the vilonce but for the language.

I love this movie my brothers 8 and 10 who were 6 and 10. We watched it when it premeried on cartoonnetwork and my entire family loves it. we didn't think it was scary and the swear was blocked on cartoonnetwork. Overall awesome movie!!

I wasn't sure how I was going to feel when I first got this movie, but after I viewed it I decided that overall it wasn't a bad movie. There is some violence that might scare children under 10. Also there are a few instances of bad language. I also think that the older sister, played by Kristin Stewart, is portrayed as a little uncaring and unresponsible.

I watched this movie when I was 9 or 10 years old. The intensity was very high! There was a TV, but it got destroyed by a meteorite. I did not notice anything else bad.

This is a movie that I love!!!

I think zathura is a good movie with adventure it is almost exactly like jumunji except this one is in space! it also has twilights own christin stewart

After I got past a very inappropriate word being used in the first 2 minutes of the movie, I felt that it was an engaging adventure somewhat appropriate for my 8 year old. The movie is suspenseful more than it is scary, however, I will say that the part with the Zorgon lizard species gets a bit intense. I think younger viewers would be frightened by the constant action. Although I let my 8 year old watch it, I think it is more appropriate for slightly older viewers.

It is a scary movie and some kids will be very scared by it.

My 6 year old son, who tends to "think too much," was terrified by this movie and actually had recurring nightmares for MONTHS after watching it. It plays a little too scary with that line between dreams and reality for younger kids. Lots of violence and extremely scary images and concepts. Make sure your child can handle this before letting them watch it - even consider watching it yourself first to make "the call."

Zathura is really good. But... there is some bad language. There are some very funny parts but there are some very scary parts too. But for me, I like it.

Way too scary for my 5-year-old in the theater. We had to go behind the wall in the foyer because it was so intense, but he didn't want to leave. I wanted him to see it had a good ending at least, if was ok with sticking it out, so I agreed to stay. All kids are different, but I thought it was one we could have waited a few years on.

great movie!

I actually liked this movie. Great special effects and acting. Not scary at all.

It is awesome!!!!!!!!!!! Not very scary.

this movie does have strong language including one d--k so i rate it for 6+

this is illigul

I watched this when I was in my mid teens, I think, and it still terrifies me to this day! Would not recommend it for anyone easily scared, especially by space adventures. This may be a spoiler, but Zathura is a black hole-- absolutely terrifying especially after that whole nightmare "game" to get there. I would not let my kids watch this one.

Although not as good as Jumanji, this film is also great. People sould love the aliens and space themes.

I think this film is great because the place on the outer space. i hope you like it too.

dick isnt that bad of a word

My son was sitting on the edge of his seat and loving this movie. I didn't like some of the language and the zorgons were a little too scary for my liking, but he really loved it. I will buy and edit out the language myself, and we'll all be happy. :)

This movie is so clasical and fun. It has a very important lesson in it. The only problem I have in this movie is the language the boys were saying. It's vey inapropriate. But the movie is still great.
