Are Family Movies Great For Bonding?

Movies offer a great opportunity for families to bond, offering kids a chance to engage their imaginations and be themselves around their parents or guardians. Ideal family movies are funny, wholesome, entertaining for people of all ages. You can enjoy a movie from the Harry Potter series with your kids and family friends in the living room, or under a starry night in the backyard.

Families can enjoy watching their favorite movies in the living room or the backyard with smart projectors. Packed with features that leave a breathtaking effect on any family movie setting, smart projectors provide easy setups, premium content from several sources, and deliver movies in pure, rich, and colorful displays. Smart projectors also have features that mitigate blue light exposure and protect the eyes.

This article will explore some great family movie recommendations for your viewing pleasure and how smart projectors like the recommended XGIMI home/outdoor projectors elevate the family movie experience.

Top Recommended Family Movies For Your Viewing Pleasure

If you are planning a family movie night at home or on a camping trip, here are a few interesting movies you and yours will love:

The Harry Potter Series

The series covers the life of Harry Potter, played by Daniel Radcliffe, and his mortal enemy Lord Voldemort. The story depicts the popular good versus evil theme and tells how love can conquer even the greatest evil.

The Greatest Showman

An excellent feature on this list is the musical drama that tells the story of P.T. Barnum (played by Hugh Jackman), a famous entertainer who created the Barnum & Bailey Circus, and the lives of the circus's biggest acts.

The Pursuit of Happyness

Rated PG-13 and released in 2006, The Pursuit of Happyness captures the life of a homeless single father, Chris Gardner (played by Will Smith), as he takes custody of his son, Christopher Jr (played by Jaden Smith), and his struggles to provide a meaningful life for them.

Jumanji: The Next Level

The first comedy movie on this list featuring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Jumanji: The Next Level, is an action-packed story of a group of four friends and the world's most dangerous game. When one of them (Spencer) goes missing, the gang returns to save Jumanji and their friend.

Zootopia

Set in the mammal metropolis of Zootopia, this movie is a computer-animated adventure comedy. A rookie bunny cop in the Police Department uncovers a sinister plan and enlists the help of a con artist to prove herself to the Chief, Bogo.

Charlie and The Chocolate Factory

Released in 2005, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a story of a poor young boy who wins a raffle ticket to tour Willy Wonka's gigantic chocolate factory with four other kids. The movie has a comic and adventurous twist and is one of the top recommended movies for kids.

Despicable Me

When Gru, a criminal mastermind, adopts a trio of orphans and uses them as pawns in a grand scheme, their love begins to change him for the better. Gru and his Minions are famous faces in the entertainment world today, and their first onscreen appearance combined great storytelling with humor and computer animations.

Moana

This computer-animated family musical tells the story of Moana, the chief's daughter, who journeys to find demigod Maui (voice of Dwayne Johnson) and return the heart of Te Fitti, a goddess whose island had been ravaged by a blight since she lost her heart.

Home Alone

Set in 1991 and still one of the most famous family movies of all time, Home Alone tells of the adventures of eight-year-old Kevin, whose family accidentally left behind when leaving for France. When two thieves try to break into the house, Kevin takes responsibility and tries to defend this home.

The Lion King (2019)

One of Hollywood's most popular themes, The Lion King (2019) is a remake of the 1994 edition, with famous celebrities like Beyonce and James Earl Jones starring as voice actors. The computer-animated musical is a typical 'good versus evil' story about Simba, who has to flee after his uncle Scar murders his father, Mufasa. Years later, he returns to reclaim the throne with the help of Timon, Pumbaa, and Nala.

Why Should You Watch Family Movies With a Smart Projector?

Some smart projector features that make them great choices for watching family movies include:

Low Blue Light Exposure

Projectors produce their display using reflective imaging and diffused lighting technology, which significantly reduces the amount of blue light entering the eyes. The light source shines onto the projector screen, which absorbs most of the harmful blue light and reflects an eye-friendly image.  

Thus, smart projectors mitigate the risk of digital eye strain caused by prolonged exposure to blue light. Also, since smart projectors can produce larger screens than most TVs, you and your family do not need to sit too close to the display, which reduces the risk of suffering eye damage.

High-Quality Sound

High-fidelity sound when watching movies plays a huge role in keeping the audience glued to the screen. Some smart projectors have powerful built-in speakers with advanced sound technology that delivers your movies in excellent HiFi sound, creating an engaging atmosphere as you watch your favorite movies with your family.

Resolution

Movies and visual content generally are a typical case of 'the clearer, the better,' and some smart projectors can deliver movies in crystal-clear images for an immersive experience. With resolutions between 1080p and 4K, you can enjoy your movies on a cinema-level display.

Brightness

You can now say goodbye to squinting and trying to make out the details when watching dark scenes or using the projector in well-lit rooms. Some smart projectors display images in 900–2400 ANSI lumens, producing a bright and clear picture in well-lit rooms or outdoors.

Built-in Entertainment

You no longer have to fret about how to download or stream your choice movies, as some smart projectors run on built-in operating systems like Android TV. With Android TV, you can access premium entertainment from over 5,000 apps via Google Play. 

Some projectors also have several connection ports such as USB, HDMI, audio jack, and LAN for connecting laptops, headphones, gaming consoles, TV sticks, hard drives, etc., for more alternatives as you plan your family movie night.
