Have a 10 year old son and 7 year old daughter. Recently been watching some of the older movies I watched as a kid with them. Goonies, ET, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones. Disney and most animated movies are covered for the most part. Any movies you can recommend that I'm not thinking of? Thanks!
Not The Karate Kid Part 3 or The Next Karate Kid or the more recent remake with Jaden Smith.
Also older Bond movies.
We just watched both of those last night. Still holds up.
I'll add Little Giants with Rick Moranis and Ed O'Neill.
Both have star studded casts. Both beautifully shot.
The older version has a linear story and the writing and acting are terrific.
Newer version moves between times but I think it actually enhances the story.
Both really good for children 14 and under.
Spirited Away
This!
Fly Away Home.
Fly Away Home.
If you and your kids only want entertaining kids' stuff, then there are dozens to choose from. If you want a touching, realistic, breathtakingly beautiful, and inspiring film, this is it. Note that its pace is not zippy; I consider that a strength. The heroine is a young teenage girl, and the flying theme will appeal to everyone. Absolutely gorgeous cinematography and a wonderfully understated vibe.

I haven't seen this film, but the description reminds me of the recent remake of Pete's Dragon. It's also wonderfully understated and has some surprising musical choices ("So Long Marianne" by Leonard Cohen??).
