  1. I rate this title iffy for age 10 and give it 3.0
    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence

    I like it

    It's good and pretty funny but it has violence like the ACME bad guy who wants to turn everyone into a blue monkey and he also wants a train to drive over a movie star spy.

    My concerns are:
    • Excessive violence
    • Excessive consumerism

    Weird, NOT for young kids.

    A little too weird. Should be PG-13. I know someone who got scared watching it when they were little. REALLY terrifying scenes with alien-like creatures.
