In the 23 years since Shrek won the inaugural Oscar® for Best Animated Feature, the movie has become a certified classic — spawning sequels, a Broadway musical, and a devoted-as-ever legion of fans. Telling the story of a solitary ogre who must save a princess from the evil Lord Farquaad in a land populated by fairy tale creatures, Shrek is full of visual gags and pop-culture references that make it perfect viewing for kids and parents alike.

Bee Movie 

After the newly adult honeybee, Bary B. Benson veers off course during a pollen-collecting trip, he meets a florist and learns the truth: humans have been stealing honey from his kind for centuries.

Despicable Me 

Despicable Me

As supervillain Gru works to finish his nefarious plot to steal the moon, three orphan girls derail his plans as they try to make him their dad. For the adults, it’ll be fun to hear Steve Carell anchor the film with Gru's unplaceable Eastern European accent, and if you're a kid, Despicable Me marks the breakout debut of maybe the biggest movie stars of our time, the Minions – need we say more?

Shark Tale 

Shark Tale takes place in an undersea reef where sharks are feared criminals who run their mob out of the hull of the sunken Titanic. After falsely taking credit for the death of the mob boss’s son, a small, underachieving fish must escape the shark mob’s henchman. Kids will love the colorful world and funny fast-talking fish, but adults will recognize the movie as a fun send-up of the Godfather. If you find yourself wondering, “Hey, are those the voices of De Niro and Scorsese?” Don’t doubt yourself! You’re right!

The Lorax 

The Lorax

Based on the environmental Dr. Seuss classic, this animated comedy expands on the world of the original. 12-year-old Ted lives in a city devoid of nature, complete with artificial trees. When he decides to find a real tree to impress his crush, his journey leads him to learn the truth about his hometown from the Lorax (Danny De Vito), a funny, orange grump who speaks for the trees. Regardless of your age, you can bet you’ll find yourself humming the tunes from The Lorax for days to come.

Trolls: Band Together 

The third movie in the Trolls series is set in a colorful world populated by the Trolls, little creatures who love nothing more than to sing and dance. Poppy and Branch, now officially a couple, must rescue Branch’s brother from a pair of nefarious villains. But in order to succeed, they’ll have to reunite BroZone, an old boy band that Branch used to be in with his brothers. 

Stream Trolls: Band Together. If your kids loved the movie, they're sure to also love Trolls: TrollsTopia, an animated series streaming on Peacock.  

Over the Hedge 

When a group of woodland critters emerges from their winter hibernation to find a manicured suburb has sprung up in their forest, an opportunistic raccoon teaches them how to steal food from humans without getting caught. Imagine Ocean’s 11 but with an animated raccoon instead of George Clooney and Matt Damon replaced by a hyperactive squirrel named Hammy.

Megamind Vs. The Doom Syndicate
