Looking for a list of SFF (safe for family) movies that are high production quality with little to no spicy scenes and hints etc…
I know there has to be some, but I’m not asking for a recommendation like home alone or the lorax etc
I am looking for a good SFF movies like for example: The trueman show Pursuit of happiness Etc
I’m open to new genres so feel free to suggest what SFF movies you enjoy, don’t be a lurker


Ohh boy, my time to shine. I’ll try to break it down based on safeness. I’ll avoid listing some obvious ones, like main Disney movies. There may be some spoilers in my notes. Also “suggestive” may be more accurate as level of awkwardness. And everything is my opinion.
As safe as can be:
Some violence:
More violence:
Slightly suggestive:
More suggestive:
Violent and suggestive, or otherwise doesn’t fit in any other category:
I left out most anything that was primarily action. IDK where I’d draw the line at family friendly. Something like The Matrix is just violence but didn’t seem family friendly to me. There would be a ton more if I included movies like that though.
Amazing list!! There are a bunch on here I hadn’t heard of before, so thanks for sharing!
Of those I’m familiar with, I think a heads up is warranted for couple of films in your “As Safe as Can Be” section: Office Space (one of my faves) has lots of swearing and some suggestive dialogue (the million dollar question scene comes to mind) and Groundhog Day has lots of references to suicide and one or two makeout scenes.
Also, I watched Happy Gilmore recently with my 11 year old, and she was mortified by Happy’s “Happy Place” dream sequence (I had completely forgotten about that part), so just an FYI that it gets a bit spicy (and weird).
Updated. I thought I left off all of Adam Sandler’s classic movies. None are really family friendly. I took it to mean things you’d allow kids to watch.
Been a long time since I’ve seen it but would Rat Race go in any of these categories? Also you should totally make a letterboxd list, so I (and others) can automatically generate a collection in Jellyfin from your movie choices here.
Probably the some violence category, if I remember the movie well enough. They are competing against each other to get to the prize after all. It’s more like cartoon violence though, like Wacky Races except more tame.
I spent like 3 hours making that list. I had a lot of movies to look through and I spent for too much time trying to figure out what to include and which category they go under. Not sure I’m up for spending more time on this. I don’t even know what letterboxd is.
