Ben Affleck's kids aren't afraid to roast his movies.
During an interview with "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Wednesday night, the Oscar winner said, "My kids, they're like very tough and they don't censor their criticism."
He added, "They'll sit right next to me watching a movie just -- while it's happening, 'This is terrible, why did you do this?!'"

He said during the pandemic, he had them watch his 1998 film "Armageddon" and they weren't too impressed by it.
"Almost immediately, it was like, 'What?! What is [this]? This is so stupid. Are you kidding me?'" he said. "My son was like, 'It just doesn't make any sense!' I said, 'This is not a logic-based film.'"
One film that his kids did like, he said, is his upcoming film, "The Accountant 2."
Affleck recalled, "I was like, 'What's the catch? You really liked it?'"
"And they were like, 'Yeah! It was really good!' and they were shocked," he said. "As if I got lucky that this magical accident happened and something I did was OK."
