I feel like I’ve watched every family friendly film in the world... give me your recommendations

[newlabelwriter]

Every weekend we sit down as a family and attempt to watch a film together and every weekend we spend ages trying to find something to watch and I actually feel like I’m running out of things to watch. Please share your finds with me. If it helps this is what we’ve watched lately.

Every single marvel film about a million times
Indiana Jones (all of them)
Harry Potter (see above)
Wonder Woman 2 (dreadful)
Military wives
Hunt for the wilder people (brilliant)
Le Mans 66
Senna
Knives Out
To catch a thief
Ghostbusters (old and new)
Jurassic parks (old and new)
Soul (loved)

And many others. My DC are 14 and 12 btw. TIA for your suggestions

Bill The History of Future Folk The Blind Side Isle of Dogs Moonrise Kingdom Back to the Future Ferris Bueller's Day Off

I have watched moonrise Kingdom with DC but the bit where the two main characters (I forget their names) have their first kiss in their underwear mortified DD so much she left the room 😂 I do love that film though and the other Wes Anderson ones. They’re definitely worth more investigation.

Back to the Future trilogy big hit here
Enola Holmes on Netflix
Studio Ghibli films
The Goonies
Gremlins

Uncle buck
Grease
Ace Ventura
Toy story
Home alone

These are some that I used to watch with my family when I was younger

Big
Life of Brian
Groundhog Day
Hidden figures

Thanks for all of these, we haven’t watched many eighties films yet.

Whale rider

Dirty dancing - though maybe slightly awakened depending on your tastes

Coco is so good. But do have tissues on hand!

Moana and Newsies were recent hits here! What about the How to Train Your Dragon movies?

Inside out - a Disney film but my husband and I found it sooo good! But I suppose that's because we have a son so it made it very real

Moana is great

We've gone old school and the kids are loving it. Major successes recently have been:

The Goonies
E.T.
Labyrinth
The Neverending Story
The Railway Children
Black Beauty
Little Women (new one and Winona Ryder one)
Original Star Wars trilogy
Fly Away Home
Musical's (Calamity Jane, Sound of Music, Bugsy Malone)

She might struggle with Ferris Bueller too then 😂 although the kissing is pretty tame as far as I remember...

Have you watched the new Jumanji films? They're quite good fun though silly

We also watched The Life & Times of David Copperfield which we all loved. Also Greatest Showman (ages ago but that’s just popped into my mind).

My dc are 12 and 15 we are watching
the meet the parents trilogy,
Home alone
Uncle buck
Mean girls

DH’s old copies of Time Bandits and Jabberwocky were surprisingly popular. I’m wondering if 10 is too young for the Python films.

Planes,Trains and Automobiles - my 11 year old loved it!
