    The General?

    I'm a huge Buster Keaton fan - I own the box set of his work, in fact, but I'd never put The General on a list of kids movies... despite the fact that I agree, as do most critics, that it's probably his best movie. No... if you want Keaton at his best in a style more suitable for children, I'd go with Sherlock Jr. It's a shorter, more disjointed, but more action packed and just plain funny introduction to maybe the greatest physical comedian who ever lived.
