1. Arthur Christmas – 2011 :

A movie, which made the kids believe that Santa is real and he really delivers gifts and wishes to good children, no matter what. The storyline of the movie goes as Santa along with his family runs a sophisticated futuristic delivery system for Christmas gifts. In these deliveries, one gift is left behind, and Santa’s Younger son Arthur & his grandpa goes length and breadth to make it reach to the right doorstep.

Their efforts and process to get it delivered to the kid is the heart of the story that makes us laugh, exclaim and jump on the seat, all at the same time. The message of the movie is to kindle hope, optimism and motivate us to do small good deeds to make others happy. Frankly, Arthur Christmas carries the true heart of the holiday.

2. Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 2 :

Flint is a young scientist who believes in himself as a super genius and keeps coming up with crazy inventions. Finally, he is able to make a machine, which converts water into Food. With praise and appreciation comes the fear of something that may go wrong. This movie is all about how the food machine takes over the city and how Flint gets it back.

Full marks go for the imagination of the scriptwriter for playing up with the fantasy of Food Lovers. The animations are very colourful and beautifully crafted. Each character outshines other, and their comic timings hit bull’s eye. This movie would kindle the food lover in you and would also make you wish that Tesla comes up one such machine. Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 2 is a must watch for all kids.

3. 9 :
