Our family loves a good movie night, but there is nothing worse than sitting down and spending 20 minutes looking through all the options to find something. With fall right around the corner, I decided to make a list of fall family movies we can refer to when we’re looking for something to watch over the next few months. While I can’t explain why every movie on this list feels like a “fall” movie to me, I think you’ll agree they all seem to fit at this time of year! Remember that ReelGood is a great resource for figuring out where to watch a movie based on the subscriptions that you have.
