New movies are hitting the Netflix catalog every day, and we’re here to talk about a few of them that we think are the best for people of all ages. Read on to learn more.
1. The Addams Family (And Addams Family Values)
Adults all know about this spooky and fun family, and luckily, these two movies can also bring kids in on the fun. These movies are timeless and they’re great for a longer movie night if you want to watch both!
In the first movie, a long-lost relative named Fester returns to the family home. When he starts trying to get the family evicted, however, problems start to arise.
In the second movie, parents Morticia and Gomez welcome a new baby. Addams family children (Wednesday and Pugsley) get to go to summer camp (much to their chagrin) after doing everything in their power to rid the house of the infant.
These movies are dark, funny, and still child-friendly. Parents and kids alike will enjoy them.
2. Hook
Hook is a classic retelling of Peter Pan. Peter, after agreeing to leave Neverland, has grown up in the real world. He’s now an overworked lawyer with young children.
Captain Hook, Neverland’s pirate, takes Peter’s children, forcing him to return to Neverland to get them back. Peter doesn’t remember his time as Peter Pan, so how can he conquer the infamous Captain Hook?
This movie may be from the nineties, but it holds up. Children who love Disney’s Peter Pan will love this new adventure.
3. Jumanji
Another Robin Williams classic, Jumanji is a nostalgia trip for adults and an exciting adventure for children.
In Jumanji, a child named Alan Parrish gets locked in a magical board game. Years later, two children find the game and start to play, releasing Alan, who is now an adult.
The game turns into a fight for survival as wild animals and a hunter escape from it. How will the kids finish the game and protect the town?
Try watching this one on the big screen with outdoor movie screens!
4. Monster House
Monster House is the newest film on the list, released in 2006. It’s an animated film about three children who sneak into the home of a deceased neighbor who was always cranky and unkind.
Mysteries of the house unfold as the children realize that the home itself might be a monster.
This is technically a horror movie, but it’s appropriate for small children. The animated characters and charming humor balance out the scary moments.
