I have always loved animated movies of all types. Last year, lots of great animated films came out. This post is my ranking of five animated movies I saw that came out in 2021. I understand that there are other big movies that came out, but I haven’t gotten around to watching them yet.

#5: Wish Dragon

Wish Dragon was a fun movie, despite being a direct Aladdin rip off. The story was a little bit basic, and characters were clichéd, but it was still a fun movie. I give it a 6.5 out of 10.

#4: Raya and the Last Dragon

This movie was a fun adventure with some good action. This movie had some plot holes, mostly regarding the enemy tribe. This movie also didn’t seem to spend enough time adding good character development. I give it a 6.8 out of 10.

#3: Ron’s Gone Wrong

Ron’s Gone Wrong was a good movie with some strong emotional beats about friendship. There is a major plot hole when he runs away to the forest with no food or communication. The entire third act feels forced and unnecessary. I give this movie a 7.4 out of 10.

#2: Luca

 

Luca is a great movie that was fun to watch. The friendship between the two main characters is well portrayed and all of the characters are well developed. Although it isn’t a big adventure and there aren’t any big goals to achieve, it’s still fun to watch. I really liked this movie. I give it a 9 out of 10.

#1: The Mitchells vs the Machines

This movie is funny, relatable, emotional, and creative. The movie tells a great story about family. The characters are all funny and enjoyable in their own ways. The only thing I disliked about this movie was the villain, who was basic and forgettable. I give this movie a 9.4 out of 10.

Thanks for reading. Stay tuned for my next posts on this topic and let me know what you would like to see next in the series.
