When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. (Image credit: Netflix) As the "KPop Demon Hunters craze continues, I've been thinking a lot about Netflix's animated output. Over the years, the streaming service has put out some seriously strong animated movies from some truly talented filmmakers. Like countless other movie lovers, I grew up in front of Disney classics and have since grown into a lifelong fan of the medium. Following the revelation that "KPDH" had become the second-most-watched Netflix movie of all time, I figured now was as good a time as any to take stock of some of the most entertaining animated work that you can find on the platform. To be frank, it was nigh on impossible to whittle down this list to just a handful of picks; the range is just that good, and I've no doubt had to skip at some favorites. However, I've tried to highlight a range of genres and animation styles that show the moviemaking medium has plenty to offer to movie lovers of all ages.

So, without further ado, here's a list of seven of the very best animated movies you can stream on Netflix right now. 'Klaus' (2019) Klaus | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Netflix dropped Sergio Pablos' Oscar-nominated animated Christmas movie "Klaus" back in November 2019, and this festive treat has been part of my Christmas rotation every single year since — it's just that good. Functioning as an origin story for Jolly Saint Nick, "Klaus" introduces us to self-centered postal worker, Jesper (Jason Schwartzman), who is carted off to a tiny, feuding community in 19th-century Norway. There, he forges an unlikely friendship with reclusive toymaker, Klaus (J.K. Simmons), and the duo begin delivering toys and bringing cheer to the locals.

Watch "Klaus" on Netflix now 'KPop Demon Hunters' (2025) KPop Demon Hunters | Official Trailer | Sony Animation - YouTube I mentioned it in my intro already, but I couldn't put this list together and not include "KPop Demon Hunters," it's a bona fide Netflix phenomenon. Despite only hitting the streamer in June 2025, Maggie Kang and Chris Applehans' musical action flick has taken the world by storm, and I doubt the hype will die down anytime soon. It's easy to see why it's taken off so much, too: "KPop Demon Hunters" is a blast. Throwing us in with superstar KPop trio Huntrix as they sell out stadiums (and secretly defend us from demonic threats), this Sony Pictures Animation project is a gem. It's packed with action, great characters, vibrant visuals, laughs, and soundtracked with infectiously catchy tunes: what's not to like? Watch "KPop Demon Hunters" on Netflix now 'The Mitchells vs. The Machines' (2021) The Mitchells vs. The Machines | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube Sony Pictures Animation really does keep producing hits. Before "KPDH", the "Spider-Verse" studio also brought Netflix another accomplished feature in "The Mitchells vs. The Machines," a zany, creative family sci-fi comedy caper with bags of personality. Before Katie (Abbi Jacobson) leaves home and heads off to film school, family patriarch Rick (Danny McBride) insists on driving her and the whole dysfunctional family all the way there on one last big road trip. And while Rick's forced fun spells trouble, the family finds themselves as humanity's last hope when a robot uprising springs up around them. Watch "The Mitchells vs. The Machines" on Netflix now 'Nimona' (2023) Nimona | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube We almost didn't get to watch "Nimona", until Annapurna and Netflix swept in and saved it, and I'm glad they did: this punky, LGBTQ+ sci-fi fantasy movie was worth saving This dazzling 2023 film whisks us away to a futuristic medieval world where Ballister Boldheart (Riz Ahmed) is framed for murder and forced to go on the run. As a fugitive, he crosses paths with Nimona (Chloë Grace Moretz), the titular shapeshifter (and fellow outcast) who insists on becoming his new sidekick. Together, they set out to find the truth and learn a lot about one another in the process.. Watch "Nimona" on Netflix now 'Pinocchio' (2022) GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S PINOCCHIO | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube In the same year that Disney brought us its drab live-action "Pinocchio" remake, Guillermo del Toro and stop-motion artist Mark Gustafson teamed up to bring us this imaginative take on Carlo Collodi's classic tale of a puppet come to life. It may not be suitable for the youngest of viewers, but it's a real triumph of a film (and rightly bagged Best Animated Feature at the 2023 Oscars). Beautifully made, charming and yet still tinged with darkness, "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio" is a fantastic dark fantasy, and a movie well worth streaming if you haven't already. Watch "Pinocchio" on Netflix now 'The Prince of Egypt' (1998) The Prince of Egypt (1998) Trailer #1 | Movieclips Classic Trailers - YouTube DreamWorks' 1998 Biblical epic is an adaptation of the Book of Exodus, and lives up to that "epic" label by being an utterly captivating musical retelling of the Moses. You get an A-list voice cast, including the likes of Val Kilmer, Ralph Fiennes and Sandra Bullock, stunning visuals, and Broadway-worthy musical numbers, combined into a truly thrilling watch. Along with the studio's 2000 follow-up, "The Road to El Dorado" (not currently on Netflix), "The Prince of Egypt" is one of my all-time favorite animated movies. It's not a Netflix project, but that's where the movie's currently streaming, and I can't recommend it enough. Watch "The Prince of Egypt" on Netflix now 'Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl' (2025) Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl | Official Trailer | Netflix - YouTube As a Brit, it'd be impossible for me to overlook "Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl" — I'm basically hard-wired to have a soft spot for Aardman's dynamic duo. To longtime fans of the wacky inventor and his trusty canine companion, it came as no surprise that this cracking claymation caper was just as fun as any of their previous outings. This latest misadventure sees Wallace and Gromit face off against their legendary foe, Feathers McGraw (a nefarious penguin), who repurposes Wallace's smart gnome devices to help him seek his revenge on the pair that helped put him behind bars at the local zoo. "Vengeance Most Fowl" is impeccably, incredibly put together and brilliantly entertaining: get it watched.
