Family
I usually watched this when i was really little and they still live in my mind rent free. Even thought they are like cartoons and animation movies, everyone can watch them.
I'd be shocked if you told me that you are not at least familiar with this movie so i listed it just in case. Amazing movie with an amazing message that is not visible straight up. This is like if the book ‘Little Prince’ was a movie. Each time i wat...
Spirited Away (2001)
Absolutely adorable. I love movies like this that have way deeper meaning behind it. I find this movie underrated like nowadays it's never brought up although it touches up on some serious topics that are trending now like environmental crisis and gl...
WALL·E (2008)
OMG THIS MOVIEEEE I like randomly found it while researching for this list and it brought so much memories! I loved horses growing up so i would watch this movie constantly! It's just so good!
Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002)
Musicals
I love musicals and i have many many more that i wanted to include but than this list would be filled with them. I chose this two because they truly made an impact on me.
This seems predictable, me being a girl and liking this movie but it's actually so much more than that. You see i don't tend to like movies like this - romantic comedies/musicals, but this to me is a comfort movie that i first saw when i was 8 years ...
Mamma Mia! (2008)
This literally screams “Hello i'm BASIC” but i come to you as someone who never heard about The Wicked before this movie. It was just never that popular in my region & i never crossed paths with it, so when i went to the cinema to watch it, i mus...
Wicked (2024)
Horror
I don't enjoy this genre but my bf always makes me watch some horror films. He somehow really enjoys them so i suck up and watch them with him (with my head in a pillow). These are some that stuck out to me.
I watched this only because of Lilly Rose Depp (and Aaron Taylor Johnson ofc) and i was so pleasently surprised. Like this is cinematography master piece. I love hoe it kept being spooky and scary throughout the whole film without having jumpscares.
Nosferatu (2024)
This was a brilliant horror movie for me personally. it was different from other horror movies i watched, the plot was interesting and the acting perfect.
Longlegs (2024)
Action / Fiction
I feel like this is wrongly named section but i couldn't find a better word so please correct me if you find a better fitting genre.
I was not expecting this movie to be this wild of a ride. As if having young Keanu Reevs is not life changing on it’s own, the movie itself is a masterpiece and a beautifully played metaphore for what happens with your life when materialistic things,...
The Devil's Advocate (1997)
Lovely movie about compassion and friendship but also brutal racism. A must-watch if you ask me. It sheds a light on struggles of black people, while also showing the ability of mind changing, justice and love.
Green Book (2018)
This is a serbian movie that it thinks needs way more recognition. Serbia is quiet conservative when it comes to sexuality so you could say the people didn't really like this film when it was first released. It talks about struggles of gay people who...
The Parade (2011)
Love this movie! So funny and witty! It touches on serious topics while also having amazing humor. Also a tad bit emotional but with a happy ending!
IMDBThe Intouchables (2011)
Romance
This to me is so much more than a romance movie. It's maybe the way the film was captured but it is just breathtaking and comforting to me. The scenery is so beautiful that i wish the movie would continue on and on forever. And i am a Timothe Chalamet stan so i'm sure that added to it.
Call Me by Your Name (2017)
