      The Magnificent Seven, provisionally. The 1960 one, with Yul Brynner. Provisionally because I don't remember if there was any alarming violence. The bad guys get some in the end, I think mostly just BOOM, fall down, but I don't remember beyond that.

      Maybe somebody here remembers.

          Mik, why no Fast and Furious? He loves cars in general and muscle cars in particular.

                  You do not want him to imprint on that sort of driving. While it is unlikely he will ever have to fight raptors or Afghans, he will be driving one day, sooner than you'd like.

                                Creepy. Hopefully that's not a deterrent.

                                Please love yourself.

                                        In fairness, I do not have a great track record for movie suggestions.

                                        Education is extremely important.

                                          The Fast & Furious franchise is diverse and inclusive, what's not to like?
