Animation movies are way better than movies with real life characters. One among the many reasons being that the characters are always extremely cute and adorable. Fishes and animals talking? Is that not adorable. The voice overs in almost all animated movies are perfect. Not only that these movies tend to be more emotional and they also have the best story lines. So here are some of the best, must-watch animated films of all times.
Encanto
A 2021, America, animated, musical fantasy comedy film. It was produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. The film is about a family that gets special powers after they survived a tragedy. Each one of them has their own unique gift except for Mirabel. The movie focuses on the life of Mirabel, who tries to keep up with her extraordinary family.
The film is both emotional and funny. This musical film consists of all original songs of Lin Manuel Miranda, and one of the songs “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” is the longest reigning chart topper for Disney in the US Billboard Hot 100 history.
Coco
Coco is a 2017 American animated fantasy film. It was produced by Pixar Animation Studios. The movie is inspired by the Mexican culture of celebrating the “day of the dead”. Young Miguel dreams of becoming like Ernesti de la cruz who is a famous musician. But he finds himself in the land of the dead and meets Hector. They get along really well and they then get to know the hidden secrets behind Miguel’s family.
The movie is super emotional. It leaves you content and happy after watching. Miguel will always live in my head, rent-free.
Up
Up is a 2009 animated comedy film, directed by Pete Docter the chief creative officer of Pixar. The movie starts with two kids falling in love, getting married and then finding out that they cannot get pregnant. They grow old together and the wife passes away leaving the old husband, Carl, all alone in a cute little house. The husband loves flying and he wants to fulfil his wife’s wishes of visiting the paradise falls. Little does he know about the vast adventure that lies ahead of him.
The film is directed to perfection. The visual aspect of the film is very captivating, especially the house with the flying balloons. The story line is noteworthy and very creative. All I can say is that, it’s definitely one among THE BEST.
Ratatouille
2007 comedy drama produced by Pixar Animation Studios. Remy is a member of a large family of rats but unlike the others he has an exquisite taste in food and hates to eat garbage. He dreams of becoming like his fav Chef Gusteau. The chef had passed away earlier and Remy somehow finds himself in Gusteau’s three-star restaurant. He then meets a young kitchen helper Linguini and helps him to cook well. The restaurant becomes famous because of Remy’s passion for cooking. But the trouble starts when head chef doubts if there is a rat in the restaurant.
The characters are an absolutely delight to watch. But I would like to talk about the dishes that were being shown in the film. They look absolutely delicious and it might leave you craving after watching the movie.
Finding Nemo
It is 2003 American animated comedy drama adventure film, produced by Pixar animation studios. Barracuda eats Marlins eggs but thankfully one was saved and that was his son, nemo. So, marlin is very overprotective and tells nemo to be safe on the first day of school. But nonetheless nemo finds himself in an aquarium.
The film is all about the adventures of Nemo. It also has very sentimental parts between the fish father and fish son. The story is all about fishes. Cute, colourful, and emotional fishes.
The Lion King
The lion king was released on 24th June 1994. It is an animated musical drama film produced by Don Hahn. The story starts with the king of the jungle, a lion named Mufasa, having a son named Simba. Even before Simba gets old, his uncle scar kills his father. Simba runs away into the forest where he meets two animals who becomes his best friends. Together they spend their days in the forest and Simba grows into a handsome lion like his father. He is then asked to go back to his kingdom and he and his friends have an adventure together.
The Lion King is by far the most famous and top selling animated movie of all times. I personally do not think there is anyone who hasn’t at least heard about the film. The story in itself is just perfect. The music and the characters and the acting and in fact everything about the movie is just amazing.
