Is the movie good? Do your little ones enjoy it or is it aimed at bigger kids?

I took my 4 year old to see it last weekend.  It was borderline.  Don't take your kids if they have any sort of sensory overstimulation issues.  It almost made me nauseaus to watch all the vibrant action.  There is quite a bit of shooting/kung fu action but nothing bloody.  There are a few curse words (a sh$# bleeped out and a middle finger).  Its also very long at 2 hours and 15 minutes.  My son who is usually very sensitive at movies (he cried at Curious George and won't watch Monsters Inc because its too scary) was totally fine.  I don't think undre 5 would follow the complex plot line though.

Doesn't hurt that Matthew Fox is hot.  Sorry, but true. Haha!
