    Animation has captivated audiences with its ability to tell stories that are both visually stunning and emotionally resonant. The best animated movies of all time showcase the medium’s diversity and creativity, offering stories that entertain, inspire, and resonate with audiences of all ages. From Disney animation originals to the brilliant works of Hayao Miyazaki, the selected curation of animated movies will inspire and open an outstanding world of narratives.

    Here’s a look at some of the best animated movies of all time, including notable works from Japanese animation

    The Lion King (1994, 88 minutes)

    Directors: Roger Allers, Rob Minkoff
    Studio: Walt Disney Animation Studios

    The Lion King is a Disney classic that tells the story of Simba, a lion cub destined to be king. With its breathtaking animation, memorable songs by Elton John and Tim Rice, and themes of responsibility and redemption, it remains a beloved favourite. The “Circle of Life” sequence by Elton John is renowned for its stunning visuals and emotional impact. It had a live-action that failed to capture the emotion of the original, only praising the emotional impact of the 1994 one.

    Spirited Away (2001, 125 minutes)

    Director: Hayao Miyazaki
    Studio: Studio Ghibli

    Spirited Away is a masterpiece of Japanese animation by Hayao Miyazaki. The film follows Chihiro, a young girl who becomes trapped in a mysterious and magical world after her parents showcase a sign of greed. The richly detailed animation, imaginative creatures, and profound themes of identity and courage earned it critical acclaim and an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. It is a must-watch for fans of animation and storytelling. The beautiful and peaceful soundtrack adds to the rich atmosphere.

    Studio: DreamWorks Animation

    Shrek is a clever and subversive fairy tale that blends humour, heart, and adventure. The story follows Shrek, an ogre who reluctantly sets out on a quest to rescue Princess Fiona. The film’s sharp wit, engaging characters, and imaginative animation won it the first-ever Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and launched a successful franchise. Although it has become a part of meme culture, it is a surprisingly enjoyable film for all ages.

    Director: Katsuhiro Otomo
    Studio: Tokyo Movie Shinsha

    Akira is a landmark in Japanese animation, set in a post-apocalyptic Tokyo. The story follows Kaneda and his friend Tetsuo, who gains powerful psychic abilities. The film’s groundbreaking animation, intense action, and philosophical depth have made it a cult classic and a significant influence on both anime and global pop culture. The motorcycle scene has become one of the most referenced animation scenes. The soundtrack is also iconic and heavily draws inspiration from Indonesian culture and Japanese noh music.

Carl, after losing Ellie, embarks on a journey to fulfil his late wife’s dream, accompanied by a young boy named Russell. The film’s balance of humour, emotion, and stunning visuals makes it a standout in Pixar’s illustrious catalogue. The film’s depiction of grief and found family is perfect and makes it one of the most memorable animated films.
