Top 5 Films with Talking Animals

Top post on Blogchatter


Keeping up with the holiday mood and continuing to write about movies for kids, today I am going to list a few films where there are animals who are shown talking. There are numerous animation films in this genre, however, I have chosen non-animation ones only. So without further delay, here is the list:

1. Dr. Dolittle (1999): A veterinary doctor suddenly gets the superpower to know the languages of all animals. Although it helps him to treat the animals properly, he comes across different scenarios where he becomes a saviour and rescuer of all animals in the process. Eddie Murphy stars in this very funny film, where animals talk incessantly throughout the movie. I am sure kids will find this film very enjoyable. There is a sequel to the film, which is interesting as well.

2. Stuart Little (1999): A family adopts a mouse, Stuart who can talk. The son of the family is first jealous of Stuart's entry, but Stuart slowly manages to win his heart to become his true brother. This film is hilarious with some touching moments. Michael J. Fox's incredible voiceover as Stuart the Mouse, takes it to another level. The sequel to this film was later released.

3. Cats & Dogs(2001): A raging tech-based war breaks out between cats and dogs, beyond the range of human awareness. The film is highly action packed. Although enjoyable due to the amazing CGI works and actions shown, it could have been made a bit funnier to actually make it appealing for the kids. There were a few sequels to this film.


4. Beverly Hills Chihuahua(2008): Chloe, a stylish and Diva like chihuahua gets lost in Mexico and meets various other animals there. She romances Papi, another Chihuahua, befriends Delgado, an ex-cop dog, gets tricked by a team of fraud Rat and Iguana, gets chased by a Doberman and gets dognapped by some animal traffickers. With voices of Drew Barrymore and Andy Garcia this film is very cute to watch with kids. There is a sequel to this film.


5. The Jungle Book (2016): This film, directed by John Favreau, is an incredible screen adaptation of Mowgli's tale. It has a gripping story with fabulous action and thrills to enchant the audience throughout its runtime. Voiceovers of Ben Kingsley, Scarlett Johansson, Idris Elba, Lupita Nyongo and Christopher Walken make it a film worth remembering. 



So, these are a few films with talking animals that kids can enjoy. Please let me know of any other movies that can be included in this category in the comments section below.

A couple of days back I watched a film, only to get a headache and I forgot its name too. But still, I watched it, some people won't change. Will they? Like nations in continuous wars and internal feuds -God knows what they get out of it. War has not done good for anyone ever. While their purpose is best known to them, my purpose as a cinema lover is to create a list of films that cover topics of Communal/Civil war and internal feuds:   1. The Killing Fields: I had no idea about the history of Cambodia, till I watched this 1984 film, during my mid-twenties. A nation that was absolutely devastated as a result of the killing of thousands of its citizens under the bloodthirsty Khmer Rouge reign - Killing Fields covered this history through the pen of a New York Times journalist and his Cambodian associate. The movie is difficult to watch due to the depiction of the horrid nature of the brutality that innocent people had to go through. Pran, the Cambodian journalist had to endeav...

Mushy Mushrooms, Mini Macaroons & 5 Whodunnit Murder Mysteries to Watch on My Breakfast Plate

As the mother of a fourth-grade student, my mornings start at 5:30 a.m. daily. Making breakfast and setting up lunchboxes keep me occupied during those hours and since I like to keep it simple for breakfasts, they generally get quite boring, with either bread toasts or chapattis. (common story of a lot of moms). Sometimes our wishes can go to an extravaganza and the longing for a due break with a lavish breakfast consisting of some creamy- buttery mushy mushrooms sprinkled with roasted garlic, some berry-flavoured mini macaroons and to top it all a thrilling, chilling old-fashioned Whodunnit Murder Mystery Movie playing on TV just makes things perfect. Sounds like quite a plateful right? Since we have already made a grand plan of how my breakfast plate is going to look, let's narrow down the list of Murder Mystery movies that can be included in my watchlist. 1. Knives Out (2019): Imagine digging your fork into a plateful of yummy creamy mushrooms, tuning into Daniel...

5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever

I have always avoided films like "Drunken Master" and other movies that begin and end with a fight. The same goes for mindless action films too. However, there are a few movies that I have watched that may seem incredibly foolish and dumb but if you manage to watch those you will realise they are quite clever. So, here is my list of 5 Dumb Movies that are Secretly Clever. 1. Tucker and Dale vs. Evil: When 2 worthless friends go for a vacation, their adventures turn into a disastrous misadventure and a massacre due to misunderstandings and unfortunate turn of events. This movie is gory, bloody and yet stupidly hilarious. The execution style is of a slapstick comedy with the chills and thrills of a gory slasher, making it a unique dark comedy. How some people's false assumptions about 2 people turn into a nightmare for both parties is the main story behind this goofy massacre. 2. One Cut of the Dead: In the beginning this film looks like a low-budget mindless zombie flick, ...
