After the success of the last post, 100 Clean Family Movies, I figured it was time for more. I know my family needed a new list of family movie ideas, so putting this together is going to be so handy for me, and I hope it is for you too!
Now if this list is anything like the last one, y’all might have some input. Let me just say this… I did my darnedest to check every show’s parental reviews, in hopes of finding family movies with as little garbage as possible. I definitely want as little swearing or sexual content as possible, so these movies should all be fairly low in that area, to none. None is clearly better… but, in this day and age, sadly it’s not that easy to find. But, I did my best and I plan on using this list for many movie nights to come.
Over 100 Family Movie Ideas
Although, I did some research on the movies, I haven’t seen them all, so if you have the inside scoop on any of the content, feel free to share. Or, if there are any movies you would like to add to the list, let me know and I may end up including them in the next family movie idea post. Weigh your choices on the age of your kids and personal standards. I wanted a good mix so you could choose based on your family. Some movies, may have a more mature story line than others.
So, gather the popcorn, some Red Vines (yum!), and some cuddly blankets. Family time is the best time!

Nine Lives is supposed to be family friendly, but I had to turn it off. It was horrible. Some off the things they said were definitely not for kids. The rest of the movies seem fabulous though. I was pleased to see a few new ones I might try.

Thank you!

It could happen to you. The movie that convinced my husband and myself to get rid of our TV 23 years ago. I’m still glad we did. Plot ..Generous man meets sweet waitress. He gets rid of his selfish wife and lives, of course, happily ever after with waitress. Divorce is an awful thing, marriages take a lot of work, but again divorce is an awful thing. We just take ourselves with us, nobody is perfect, and marriage is a commitment. I was horrified that I was cheering about the happy ending.
Mariel says
Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you so much for all these great ideas! I like commonsensemedia for checking age recommendations/reviews for movies. These movies will keep us busy for many upcoming PMP’s (Pizza Movie Parties)!

I love PMP!! So fun!!
