Avengers: Age of Ultron

2015

When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

Ages 13+Source checked

Why this age? Frequent fantasy action violence, peril, frightening imagery, global-extinction threats, large-scale destruction, and a significant death make this most suitable for teens; emotional and plot complexity also assume maturity. This is guidance, not a safety guarantee; reading level and family context may differ.
