Jurassic World for a 7 year old? - Real Mum story on MoM

11 Comments

We went to see Jurassic World on Sunday; it was hubby’s choice for date night.
I was sitting next to a 7ish year old. When they sat down I was going to ask if they were in the correct cinema. And then he started to talk to his even younger brother behind us about the dinosaurs.
I was mortified during the Movie because he was asking his mum questions like ‘ are they Pets ‘, speaking about the velociraptors, I wanted to scream No. The poor little thing spent a lot of the time asking if it was finished, referring to the massive amounts of blood shed.
sorry just had to get that off my chest.

I was taken to see Jurassic park as a small child, scared the pants off me. I too was horrified to see small kids in the movies when my husband and I went this time

Were these children with their parents?

I saw this movie and in no way would recommend for a 7yo.

Each to their own, but I personally wouldn’t take a seven year old, I wouldn’t even take my nine year old!

I certainly wouldn’t take my seven year old to a movie like that.

i watched the original recently and thinking that i would let the kids watch it afterwards but no. Not a good movie for the littlies so i expect the remake to be full on

    I do wish staff at cinemas would follow classification rules regarding children watching movies. I have previously complained to staff about children being in a movie that was clearly inappropriate for very young children and action was taken to correct the situation. A child’s mind and imagination cannot rationalise the way an adults can! It takes children time to develop the skills to separate fact and fiction.

I wouldn’t have thought it was suitable for a 7 year old
