My 6 year old wouldn't make it past the ring wraiths probably. He gets freaked out easily. Is that overly sensitive?

I had the day off and wanted to watch it. She sat down next to me and we ate popcorn and drank DP. It was a great time.

Depends on the kid, but somewhere in the 11-13 range is most likely

Yep. I let my son watch it when he was 6 and he was fine. I have a nephew who's 10 who still gets scared by

I think most kids will think it is boring and slow

When they are old enough to pay attention to a 3 hour movie

I watched it with my 2 oldest kids when they were pretty young and they love it.

Depends–more worried about them being scared, or desensitized to violence?

Depends on the kid. I have one daughter who loves "scary" movies and others that don't.
