Top 10 Disney Movies to Watch in London
1. Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness (2022)
This is one of the popular Disney movies to watch in London. The popular director’s follow-up to 2016’s Doctor Strange isn’t his first superhero film, but it is his first venture into the Marvel Cinematic Universe style of filming, which eventually turns out to be both a benefit and a disaster. On the bright side, the picture has much of Sam’s trademark real effects and is arguably the closest the Marvel series has been to straight-up horror.
Director: Sam Raimi
Casts: Benedit Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Michael Stuhibarg, etc.
2. Turning Red (2022)
Mei Lee, a 13-year-old with a problem, turns into a huge red panda whenever she has an intense feeling, which is quite much every emotion at her age. She gradually realizes that only she can manage her superhuman abilities, even though certain individuals want to use them for their gain
Director: Domee Shi
Casts: Rosalie Chiang, Sandra Oh, Maitreyl Ramakrishnan, Wai Ching Ho, etc.
3. West Side Story (2021)
Almost every great director, from Martin Scorsese to Spike Lee, has produced lavish Hollywood musicals, which is possibly one of the hardest genres to pull off properly. When Steven Spielberg chose to adapt West Side Story, authored by Jerome Robbins, Leonard Bernstein, and Arthur Laurents, Stephen Sondheim, which Robert Wise had already done with critical success in 1961, he added to the difficulty of the work.
Director: Steven Spielberg
Casts: Ansel Elgort, Rita Moreno, Rachel Zegler, David Alvarez, and etc.
4. Iron Man (2008)
Since 2008, the MCU has released over twenty movies, yet “Iron Man” is still recognized to be one of the finest. Given that Robert Downey Jr. is now undoubtedly one of the MCU’s most famous characters, it’s almost impossible to comprehend how hard director Jon had to work to win him the starring part. Before Iron Man/Tony Stark had his franchise and shared TV universe, Downey was free to act as he pleased. Everyone who participated profited from the gamble.
Director: Jon Favreau
Casts: Robert Downey Jr., Terrence Howard Jeff Bridges, etc.
5. Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)
In the early 2000s, Wes Anderson would co-write and direct a classic stop-motion animated adaptation of Roald Dahl’s Fantastic Mr. Fox until one understood that Anderson’s career was founded on delivering the surprise. In this timeless story, the title character breaches a long-standing pledge to his wife that his days of stealing from their human neighbors are done. Even though it’s a family-friendly movie, Mr. Fox risks his wife and career by reverting to old habits, so the stakes are high.
Director: Wes Anderson
Casts: George Clooney, Meryl Streep, etc.
6. The Rescue (2021)
Twelve teenage footballers and their 25-year-old team captain got stranded in the Tham Luang Nang Noncave in Thailand due to monsoon circumstances, and their tale caught the attention of people worldwide in the summer of 2018. The team was saved 18 days later, with all 12 lads and their coach making it through the ordeal. Filmmakers were vying for the right to tell the narrative, no matter how it ended, as it was unfolding.
However, as this documentary by Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai – the Oscar-winning husband and wife duo behind Free Single demonstrates.
Directors: Elizabeth Chai, Vasarhelyi, and Jimmy Chin.
Casts: Rick Stanton, Saman Gunan, Richard Harris, etc.
7. The Muppet Movie (1979
As Kermit the Frog travels from a Florida swamp to Hollywood to chase his ambitions of becoming a movie star, their initial appearance on the big screen acts more as a prequel. When a restaurant owner named Doc Hopper pursues Kermit to exact retribution after the frog rejects his offer to appear as the official legs of his chain’s famed fried frog legs, mischief ensues.
Director: James Frawley
Casts: Frank Oz, Jerry Nelson, Dave Goelz, etc.
8. Luca (2021)
A little kid named Luca is hiding a deadly secret: He is a sea monster living in a small village on the Italian Riviera that abhors people of his type, is the subject of Enrico Luca, which received an “Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature” in 2022. Luca is, in the end, a powerful coming-of-age story about friendship, family, and facing our preconceptions. It is also one of Pixar’s greatest films.
Director: Enrico Casarosa
Casts: Jacob Tremblay, Jack Dylan Grazer, Emma Berman, etc.
9. Splash (1984)
In this literally “fish out of water” romantic comedy movie by Ron Howard, Tom Hanks played a sitcom star (Bosom Buddies) and aspiring comic actor who is in love with a real-life mermaid. The debut film from Touchstone, a Disney label established so that the studio could veer a little bit more from its vintage animation, was Splash. Disney couldn’t handle the crude language and fleeting view of Hannah’s behind at the time.
Director: Ron Howard
Casts: Tom Hanks, Daryl Hannah, Eugene Levy, and John Candy.
10. Captain Marvel (2019)
The worst error Marvel made in the MCU canon was delaying the release of Captain Marvel. The movie, which takes place in the past, follows Marvel as she learns about her background and gains superhuman abilities. With heaping spoonfuls of Samuel L. Jackson and all the storyline and nuance of a blockbuster action movie. The first installment in the Marvel universe with a female lead captures the essence of the 1990s in both its setting and aesthetic.
A highly entertaining 123 minutes are made possible by Larson’s use of irony to counteract her character’s enormous strength and Jackson’s wonderful performance.
Directors: Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck
Casts: Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, Ben Mendelsohn, etc.
