• Robots and Ratchet fight one another.
• We see a very powerful weapon blowing up planets.
• Robots are destroyed by ray blasts and flames.

Crude or Profane Language: Mild

Will Kids/Teens Like It? Yes

• I interviewed two kids; a 10 year old girl who said, “I loved it,” and her 8 year old brother who also loved the film. He was really excited to see the movie!

Overall this is a very entertaining fun film for kids. Depending on the child I recommend this for kids ages 5 and up. Parents need to be aware of the moderate violence.

It's only fair to share...
