About this listen

It’s the Summer Holidays, and the kids have endless free time to dive into adventure, boredom and trouble. Fear not, as we've enlisted some junior reporters to help us craft an alternative list of the best live-action kids films. From time-travelling misfits to wild monster kingdoms, we count down our Top 5 and explore why they capture the wonder, chaos, and imagination of childhood. So grab your backpack and get ready for a movie holiday like no other.


“This has been my best day of all time.” – Lee Carter
