Though many of his films are well-praised by movie critics, Russell Crowe admits that his son didn't think his films are good enough to watch.

Russell Crowe's children don't like his movies. The 43-year-old actor - who has a three-year-old son Charlie and 16-month-old son Tennyson with wife Danielle Spencer - says his eldest child refuses to watch his films because he doesn't rate them very highly. Crowe said: "My children have never watched any of my films. Charlie knows that daddy makes movies, but he says they are not good enough for him to watch."

The 'American Gangster' star revealed he has even turned his hand to animated movies in a bid to get his children to appreciate his talent. He added: "I will be working on an animated film shortly with Jeffrey Katzenberg - so I am hoping my kids will like it."

Crowe has frequently gushed about how important his children are to him, saying they are his "motivation". He previously said: "Having kids is the overall motivation of every day of our lives and that's just the way it is. To me, the whole thing is just magnificent. I've been in awe of the amazing process of being a parent since we started."

The 'Gladiator' actor is so reluctant to spend time apart from his sons he even takes them on films sets with him. He said: "Charlie is great when we're filming. He knows when to be quiet and he likes watching the TV screen. He knows to be quiet after 'Action!' "
