Movie Review Monday – 25 all-time favorite family movies

Penny Zeller, Christian Author

I’ve been asked on several occasions to list some of our family’s all-time favorite family movies.

I have to admit that it’s difficult to narrow the list down to just 25!

I’m sure I’ll be including another “favorites” list in the coming months. Believe it or not, there are many great movies out there suitable for the entire family. It just takes a bit of investigating to find them.

I’ve noted on the list below if any movies are appropriate for certain age groups. Some of these movies have archived movie reviews at https://pennyzeller.wordpress.com/archived-mom-approved-movie-reviews/ so be sure to check that as well.

This list is by no means exhaustive, but here are 25 or our favorites in no particular order:

IMGSue Thomas F.B. Eye (ages 10 and older)

The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry

End of the Spear (ages 12 and older)
