We've just watched finding dory so that's our current favourite. That and Moana at the moment.

We seem tohave watched lotss of films these holidays and the firm favourite is Toy story and lots of quotes have been repeated from these.Looking forward to spiderman coming out

DSs liked watching Rogue One

The one we all enjoyed was The Jungle Book - very well done

I like French films, as they're more original than American films, but unfortunately there are few of those around these days in Britain

I posted this, but it seemed to vanish.

I like French films, as they're more original than American films, but there are few of these around in Britain these days. And I prefer British humour to American, and, again, there aren't too many of those about.

Moana was a firm favourite in our house but like when I was a child all the Disney classics like Mary Poppins, Jungle Book, Bedknobs and Broomsticks are the ones that are watched the most alongside the original (Willy Wonka) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! :)

Fantastic beasts was just fab - amazing how they do all the effects

We all watched Finding Dory on a flight to Thailand earlier in the year. Was brilliant and got the kids all relaxed ready for a sleep.

We watched ET when it was on TV at Christmas and I was surprised to find my kids (3&5) really loved it. I thought they'd be too young but they ask to watch it every couple of months. Because it's quite long, we tend to get a few snacks and blankets and make an afternoon of it. They also really love Mrs Doubtfire.

Fantastic Beasts and where to Find them is my best film of this year.

Lego batman is the favourite in our house

I've seen seven of the top ten....

Rogue One I thought was great, but apparently I mustn't have understood it at all as I only found out about a month later that "everyone died at the end" ha ha! Shows how much I concentrate!

Fantastic Beasts we all loved - including my 17 year old son who's watched it 3 times! I especially loved the character of Jacob Kowalski so I hope he's in the next one!

My 10 year old loved Finding Dory, and so to be honest did we all. My 17 year old had been Finding Nemo mad when he was 3 so we had a bit of a soft spot for the older characters like Dory and Mr Ray etc. A great feel good funny movie!

Deadpool - wow my favourite film of the year! Absolutely hilarious but definitely NOT one for the kids. It's a 15 for a reason. My middle child is 13.5 and has just been (grudgingly) allowed to watch it but the 10 year old definitely will not be seeing it for some time yet! but I have watched it multiple times, and it is still just as funny!

Captain America Civil War was pretty good but not my favourite of the Marvel franchise. My boys enjoyed it though and so did the husband.

Batman V Superman I found a bit of a let down. I was expecting a lot more from it but it was a bit... meh.

And, Suicide Squad, I just didn't like at all. Couldn't get into it.

Our favourites are How To Train Your Dragon, we love 2 even more than the first - lots of lovely messages and very adventurous!
Looking forward to seeing Cars 3

The Jungle Book - we all loved it

We absolutely love film night in our house and have one at least once a week. We all take turns in choosing the film, so it evens out for boy films and girls films, funny films and more serious like Star Wars. We love thing the blockbusters but also some of the older films too and we usually all change into our comfies and get some drinks and popcorn on hand before the film starts. I think it's a great family bonding time, especially if it's a funny film that makes us all laugh.

My favourite family film is the new version of the Jungle Book. Have very fond memories of watching the original so found watching this very nostalgic and quite emotional! Thought the actors who voiced the characters were chosen perfectly - especially Christopher Walken for King Louie. The visual effects were amazing, it was happy, sad, funny, scary - everything rolled into one.
Perfect film!

We have watched and enjoyed Rogue One, Dead Pool, Jimmy Neutron, Turner and Hooch ( too much slobber! ), Annie - we love to sing along to this one, Ice Age (all of them) brilliant fun and Pirates of the Caribbean, all of them too.

We watched Jungle Book in the cinema, and we all enjoyed it.
The kids enjoyed The secret life of pets in the cinema, but i missed that one unfortunately.
As a family we enjoy all the Aardman films, and the Lego films.

The Emoji Movie. Critics hated it, we all thought it was fun and savvy. Animation all the way here, lots of Studio Ghibli reruns on DVD.

We've watched:
Bridget Jones' Baby - amazing!
Jungle Book - Very good
Finding Dory - Very good
Deadpool - Amazing!

We absolutely love UP! as a family and the harry potter movies

We watch a cycle of finding nemo, finding dory, monsters inc and monsters university usually... however today we watched storks (twice!) so I feel this may be added to the mix!

We have watched Secret Life of Pets which we love and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them which we were a little disappointed with

we love the secret life of pets and finding dory , which we watched with our youngest (shes 3)
My older two are 17 and 18 so watch films like dead pool which i also like too
