OK, so I'm a huge movie guy. I love seeing movies. For the most part I go to be entertained.

And holy crap does this movie deliver!

I grew up with the toys and watching the cartoon and the original movie. I was super psyched to see this movie and I loved it!! One of those that I'm probably going to see again in the theaters. Lots of crazy action sequences, super FX, and even a few funny spots.

As for the appropriateness for small kids...its VERY loud. Lots of guns and bombs and explosions. You do see a few people kick the bucket (remember the little guy on AF1 chefchris) but nothing explicit, no blood and wounds. I would think that reall little kids would be more scared by the noise, and the rest would have a blast. I know if I was 10 I'd be sneaking back into the theater to watch it again.

This is definitely a fun movie to watch.
