I found this film really fast paced (which I like) because every event led to the next and it never has any moments where you feel you don't want to watch it any more. It is never slow and when it splits off into different parts you just want to get back to the more intense, funny or awesome scene that you just left. I think it never stopped moving the plot along and it keeps you glued to the screen for the full duration of the film. I also found that it had every kind of scene whether they're trying to bounce back from a bad moment or in an awesome car chase running from cops. I also love that it leaves you on a literal cliffhanger. I would recommend this film for 7-14 year olds because some scenes can be hard to follow but it might seem a bit boring because of the concept for older teens. Overall, I think this is an amazing, very varied and all-round awesome film.
