2021 gave us plenty of terrific family-friendly movie options, from animated gems 'Encanto' (Disney+) and 'Vivo' (Netflix) to exuberant musicals like 'In the Heights' and the criminally underrated 'Everybody's Talking About Jamie.' Here are the essentials — and where each is streaming.
Despite the hurdles of the pandemic, 2021 delivered a great slate of animated features aimed at children and adults alike. Animation powerhouses like Disney and Pixar released hits like "Encanto" (arriving soon on Disney+, and in theaters now) and "Luca" (streaming on Disney+). Meanwhile, Sony Pictures Animation (home of the beloved "Spider-Verse" franchise) gave us “Vivo” and continued to push animation forward with its innovative sci-fi family comedy, "The Mitchells vs. the Machines."
