- Coraline
One of the best-created movies out there, Coraline is perfect to watch with your family on a spooky weekend night. The plot revolves around a young girl, Coraline Jones, and her adventures concerning her parents and ‘other parents’ who are demons in disguise living in her parallel world.

Another holiday-themed gem of a movie, A Christmas Story is an interesting watch to spend your vacations binging at home. The story revolves around a young boy wanting an air rifle for his Christmas gift. What follows around is a unique turn of events that does put things into perspective.
- Despicable Me
Our personal favorite! Despicable Me is, excuse our language, a ‘badass’ movie with a super cool as well as rather wholesome plot which revolves around an ex-criminal, Gru, and his minions.
As life takes a drastic turn for him, he adopts three orphan girls and takes care of them while he works on his mission in his basement with thousands of minions at his assistance. The movie contains many funny, witty, and thrilling turns, which makes it a gripping watch for adults and children alike.
You can watch Despicable Me online on HBO Max in Canada, the USA, the UK, and other regions easily and have the best time.
- Inside Out
If you wish to educate your children on human emotions in an entertaining way, Inside Out is the perfect movie to watch. The theme contains the five emotions of an 11-year-old Riley, which are Fear, Anger, Joy, Disgust, and Sadness as they overlap due to sudden and new changes in her life.
- Harry Potter
If your kids haven’t watched Harry Potter, well, they REALLY should! It is one of the iconic and classic gems that generations of people have binge-watched at least once in their lives. The movie series is based on the Harry Potter novels which are based on 7 parts.
While the first three parts are appropriate for children, we recommend parental supervision for the rest. It is never too late to introduce your kids to the magical world of Harry Potter and his struggle to defeat the evil wizard who killed his parents.
- Kung Fu Panda
Kung Fu Panda is honestly among the most wholesome series for children who love some action on their screens! But guess what? We do too! Miss no chance in witnessing the adventures of Po the Panda along with his other animal friends as they learn martial arts from their Master Shifu.
- Madagascar
When four animals escape from a NY Central Zoo with the help of four penguins, things get downhill for them as they end up landing in Madagascar.
The movie contains a whole bunch of funny dialogues as well as a catchy song ‘I Like to Move It, Move It’ which has a whole other fanbase that groves on its tunes. Make sure to have your children watch Madagascar at least once.
- Frozen
One of the best movies out there, Frozen is the perfect movie to show your kids as it breaks the long-term theme of fairytale movies about true love only being romantic. Here, the bond between two sisters who happen to be princesses is shown through the struggles they face together and conquer their challenges by having each other’s backs. It is truly a must-watch for your family.
- Matilda
Matilda, or as we call it, a superior and OG Sheldon Cooper’ is a 4-year-old, extremely brilliant girl with telekinetic abilities. The movie focuses on the neglect and abuse she faces at home and relies on books to escape her life.
As life moves on, she finds solace in her school teacher, who she later helps to get back her house and old life. It is a thrilling watch and contains a strong lesson for neglectful and abusive caretakers.
- Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Derived from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, this movie is a great watch for kids. The plot focuses on how Charlie Bucket lives in a tiny cottage with his parents and grandparents amidst poverty. His life takes a drastic turn as he wins a golden ticket to visit the world’s best chocolate factory in his town, owned by the dessert magician, Willy Wonka.
