  1. A Beautiful Mind 93% · 2001 · ages 11+
    A moving drama about a brilliant mathematician whose mind turns against him, held together by Russell Crowe's performance and a strong love story. It takes liberties with the facts but is deeply affecting.
  2. Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me 93% · 2022 · ages 15+
  3. Billie Eilish: The World's a Little Blurry 92% · 2021 · ages 11+
  4. The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse 91% · 2022 · all ages
  5. Taxi Driver 90% · 1976 · ages 15+
    A bleak, hypnotic portrait of a lonely New York cab driver sinking into obsession, with Robert De Niro unforgettable and Scorsese's grimy city made vivid. Uncomfortable and violent, but it has barely aged.
  6. CODA 90% · 2021 · ages 11+
  7. Wolfwalkers 90% · 2020 · ages 6+
  8. The Sixth Sense 89% · 1999 · ages 11+
    A quiet, eerie ghost story about a child psychologist and a frightened boy, built on atmosphere rather than gore. The ending is famous for a reason, and the film is moving as well as scary.
  9. Palmer 89% · 2021 · ages 15+
  10. Good Will Hunting 88% · 1997 · ages 15+
    A janitor who is also a maths genius is pushed towards therapy by a grieving counsellor. It's funny and moving, with Robin Williams's quiet scenes the highlight.
  11. The Gorge 88% · 2025 · ages 11+
    Two snipers guard opposite sides of a mysterious gorge and fall for each other from afar. It's a fun, genre-mixing romance with monsters, and Miles Teller and Anya Taylor-Joy have real chemistry. Plenty of silly moments.
  12. Tetris 88% · 2023 · ages 15+
  13. STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie 88% · 2023 · ages 11+
  14. Fury 87% · 2014 · ages 15+
    A brutal, grimy tank drama in the last weeks of World War II. Great ensemble acting and tense battle scenes. The film is bleak, with a few moments that push realism, but it earns its impact.
  15. Blood Diamond 87% · 2006 · ages 15+
    A tough, well-made thriller set in 1999 Sierra Leone, where a smuggler and a fisherman chase a rare diamond during a civil war. Djimon Hounsou and Leonardo DiCaprio carry it, and the action never forgets the human cost.
  16. Finch 87% · 2021 · ages 11+
    Tom Hanks and a robot cross a ruined America with a dog in tow. It's gentle, a bit predictable, and leans on sentiment, but it's warm and sincerely made.
  17. F1 87% · 2025 · ages 9+
    Brad Pitt plays a veteran racer pulled out of retirement to mentor a young driver on an F1 team. The racing is loud, fast and thrilling on a big screen, and the story is easy to follow. A great crowd-pleaser.
  18. Luck 87% · 2022 · all ages
  19. Emancipation 87% · 2022 · ages 15+
  20. American Gangster 86% · 2007 · ages 15+
    A quiet, disciplined Harlem man builds a heroin empire while a detective closes in. Ridley Scott's crime drama is long but absorbing, with fine work from Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe, though it's less daring than the best of the genre.
  21. Greyhound 86% · 2020 · ages 11+
    Tom Hanks commands a ship in a Second World War Atlantic convoy under submarine attack. It's short, tense and focused, with little backstory, which some viewers love and some find thin. Best seen on a big screen.
  22. The Banker 86% · 2020 · ages 11+
  23. A Charlie Brown Christmas 86% · 1965 · all ages
  24. Matchbox the Movie 86% · 2026 · Rated PG-13
  25. Killers of the Flower Moon 85% · 2023 · ages 15+
    A true crime story of the Osage murders in 1920s Oklahoma, told by Scorsese at a slow, deliberate pace. It's long and sombre, but Lily Gladstone and De Niro are powerful and the story is worth knowing.
  26. The Greatest Beer Run Ever 85% · 2022 · ages 15+
  27. It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown 85% · 1966 · all ages
  28. Black Hawk Down 84% · 2001 · ages 15+
    A US raid in Mogadishu goes wrong and soldiers are trapped in a city street fight. It's loud, immersive and relentless, with little time for character. Watch it for the battle, not for the story behind it.
  29. Cherry 84% · 2021 · ages 15+
  30. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo 83% · 2011 · ages 15+
    A cold, polished Swedish-set mystery with a strong lead pair and sharp pacing, though it runs long and is violent. It's a solid thriller if you can handle the dark material.
  31. 28 Days Later 82% · 2002 · ages 15+
    Danny Boyle's low-budget rage-virus film gave zombie movies new speed and a bleak, human streak. The first third is eerie and brilliant, and the later part gets rougher, but it's still influential.
  32. A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving 82% · 1973 · all ages
  33. A League of Their Own 81% · 1992 · ages 6+
  34. The Family Plan 80% · 2023 · ages 11+
  35. The Lost Bus 80% · 2025 · ages 15+
  36. Cha Cha Real Smooth 80% · 2022 · ages 15+
  37. Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World 79% · 2003 · ages 11+
    Russell Crowe commands a British warship in the Napoleonic Wars, chasing a French rival across the sea. The ship life feels authentic and the battles are tense. It's a slow, detailed film for fans of the period.
  38. Swan Song 79% · 2021 · ages 11+
  39. I, Robot 77% · 2004 · ages 11+
    A glossy action film that uses Isaac Asimov's robot ideas as a backdrop for chases and explosions. Will Smith is charismatic, but the story is thinner than it looks. Enjoyable popcorn rather than deep science fiction.
  40. Definitely, Maybe 77% · 2008 · ages 11+
  41. The Tragedy of Macbeth 77% · 2021 · ages 11+
  42. Flora and Son 77% · 2023 · ages 15+
  43. Insomnia 76% · 2002 · ages 15+
    Al Pacino plays a detective who can't sleep under Alaska's endless daylight while hunting a killer. It's a moody, well-acted thriller, though lower-key than Nolan's later films.
  44. Eternity 76% · 2025 · ages 11+
