The outstanding music and moving coming-of-age story make it an especially great movie for tweens, and a perfect family movie night choice for mixed ages.

Its theme song was super catchy, too.

Mission: Impossible is an action-packed spy thriller that follows Ethan Hunt, a secret agent framed for betrayal, as he races to uncover the real mole and clear his name.

Alexandra F. said:  This iconic Tom Cruise action thriller was a huge hit when we watched it for family movie night with our 12 & 15-year-olds, and we soon made our way through all of the sequels. (The second was the only one that fell flat, the rest were all winners.) The action can be pretty intense, with explosions, knife fights, gunfire and the like, but the camera usually cuts away before the violence gets graphic, and the stunts are incredible. It'd be worth previewing with your kid in mind, but it's an awesome action movie for tweens and teens that parents will enjoy watching just as much.

Heartwarming movie about a father and daughter who bond over raising and releasing a flock of orphaned Canada geese.

Shila said:  That Thing You Do! is about a small town "Beatles-like" pop band who make it big in the 60s. It's a nice story and the band's music is catchy. Watch all the glory to be had, as well as the challenges of stardom that unfold to this young band while the "Oneders" realize their dream.

Now on Netflix, The Prince of Egypt is an animated musical that retells the biblical story of Moses and his journey to free his people from slavery.
