This movie was good and I do enjoy 3D movies, but overall for the price that they now charge for 3D (not even IMAX either) it was not worth it. As for the small kids, there are scenes that are not OK. For instance a dragon's head is cut off. Maybe I am old school, but the cutting off of any head, even animated, is not OK. Granted it wasn't like a horror movie with blood dripping but it was graphic enough!
