Ben Affleck’s kids don’t hold back.

The actor admitted Wednesday that Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13, are “very tough” when it comes to his movies.

“They don’t censor their criticism,” the Oscar winner, 52, told “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” viewers of his and ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s three children.

“They’ll sit right next to me watching a movie and while it’s happening [say], ‘This is terrible. I mean, this is terrible. Why did you do this?’” Affleck noted.

He joked that the teenagers should at least “wait until” the film is over before roasting him.

When Jimmy Kimmel asked about a specific movie the trio lambasted, Affleck said they labeled “Armageddon” a “stupid” movie during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“All the kids were in the house [during quarantine] and I was like, ‘Hey, let’s watch a movie,’” the Golden Globe winner recalled. “Almost immediately, it was like, ‘What? What is this? … Are you kidding me?’

“My son was like, ‘This doesn’t make sense,’” Affleck continued. “[I replied], ‘This is not a logic-based film! That is not one of the criteria we used making this!’”

The “Accountant 2” star, however, claimed his kids are fans of his latest project, which premieres Friday.

“They liked it,” he insisted — despite initially thinking there was “a catch” to their unexpected praise.

“I was like, ‘What? You really liked it?’” Affleck remembered. “They’re like, ‘Yeah, it was good.’ They were shocked as if I got lucky, like this magical accident happened and something I did was OK!”

While promoting the film on “Today With Jenna & Friends” Tuesday, the filmmaker explained why his and Garner’s little ones work “classic teenager” jobs.

Although Affleck wants to “give them everything and do everything for them,” he believes doing so would be “a disservice” — and his “broke” youngest child is still “reckoning with that reality.”

Samuel, notably, was denied a pair of $6,000 sneakers in a viral March moment, with the “Gone Girl” star admitting the teen can’t mow enough lawns to get the “crazy expensive fancy shoes” he wants.

Affleck, notably, has an estimated $150 million net worth.
