Top 10 Best Disney Movies that Don’t Have Villains

Believe it or not, but not every Disney movie has a villain. And we are going to discuss the ones that don’t.
The Top Ten
1 Inside Out

I like this movie because the conflict derives from the idea of just growing up and the problems people face

Joy didn't let Riley be sad at times that she needed to be so she was kinda a villain

Look, it goes without saying that The Incredibles is the best Pixar movie ever made, but if I had to choose a close second, it would be Inside Out! Before this movie came out, Pixar was in kind of a slump ever since Cars 2. But this got them back on track. I still haven’t met anyone who likes Cars 2. I don’t think anyone like that exists. If you think about, this movie kind of does have a villain. Not in the way that we’re used to, though. The real villain of the film is growing up. It’s something that Riley and all of us go through. It’s some that’s hard to get used to. We need movies like this. There are even shows like this. There’s a Netflix show called Big Mouth that teaches us the horrors of puberty and it does it in a relatable and kind of funny way. Coincidentally, the voice of Bing Bong is in that show. However, Inside Out is more family friendly and a little more mature. It tells us that we need sadness in our lives. It’s a part of growing up. The emotions in Riley’s head do their best to get her through life. Is there any wonder as to why this is known as one of the best Pixar films? It’s the most mature and most relatable of the Pixar films.

2 A Goofy Movie

Extremely Goofy Movie is stupid! But let’s talk about the original. This movie doesn’t need a villain to be good! It deals with the struggles of being a father and the struggles of being a son with a father who cares too much about you. All Goofy wants to do is spend time with his son Max. By the way, I actually met the voice actor of Goofy at D23. Normally I hate road trip movies, but it’s done very well here. Throughout the movie, Goofy and Max start to bond a little more. I feel like putting in a villain would probably ruin this. It’s a very relatable, mature, and heartfelt movie. Which is kind weird to come from something called A Goofy Movie. I love a lot of things about this movie! I can see why it’s grown such a fanbase over the past few years.

"The real villain in this movie is the car's glove box" - JelloApocalypse

It has bigfoot who can count as a villain

Wasn't Pete technically an antagonist

3 Finding Nemo

Great movie! I love Pixar quite a lot. They make a lot of great films. And this is definitely one of them. Some might argue that the movie does have a villain. The scuba diver kidnaps Nemo, but a lot of humans in real life capture fish in the ocean. And he had no intention of harming him. He probably didn’t even know it was just a kid fish and that he was stealing him from his dad. Bruce is a nice shark who doesn’t eat fish. However, he gets out of control when he sees blood. So he can’t help it. The anglerfish I see more as an obstacle to make it harder for Marlin to rescue Nemo. than an evil character. The whale that swallows Marlin and Dory is, again, just an obstacle. And it actually ends up helping them. By the way, does anyone ever wonder why the whale has a uvula? And as for Darla, she’s just a kid. She doesn’t know shaking the bag is wrong and harmful to the fish. The point is, this movie doesn’t have a real villain. Just a bunch of obstacles. And that’s ...more

Darla Sherman?

4 Mary Poppins

La La Land > Mary Poppins. I really don’t like this movie, but I’m in the minority. I know how much everyone loves this movie. So I decided to add it to the list. That and I ran out of entries. To its credit, I guess it’s pretty harmless. It’s not offensive and doesn’t teach bad morals. And I guess some of the songs are okay. However, there are still quite a lot of dumb moments in it. The “I Love to Laugh” scene, the penguin dance, the chimney sweeps, Bert’s fake British accent, the child actors not being able to act, this movie has not aged well! I know people will disagree with me on this but that’s just how I feel. I’m actually kind of excited to see Mary Poppins Returns because it will be nice to see what a Mary Poppins film would look like in the modern era. Plus, anything with Lin-Manuel Miranda is bound to be good! Except for the Magic School Bus Rides Again.

5 Finding Dory

This is an example of a movie that shows you can have conflict without having a villain. In this case, the conflict is Dory finding her parents. There’s no character that’s keeping her from reaching that goal, intentionally. It’s great seeing Dory go on a journey to find her parents without giving up. And eventually, her persistence pays off. Because she ends up finding her parents. And she did it with the help of new friends. The movie isn’t perfect, but it’s entertaining. And that makes it enjoyable. Did the sequel need to be made? No. Am I glad it was made? Yes. It’s definitely a great movie and a great sequel.

6 Cars

I thought Cars 2 was pretty good...

7 Bolt

I love bolt it's amazing and has great characters

8 Saving Mr. Banks

This is an absolutely amazing film. I strongly recommend it to anyone and everyone

9 Winnie the Pooh
10 Kiki's Delivery Service

A really great movie that focuses entirely on a little witch girl trying to find her place in the world through her struggles and triumphs though the climax was a little forced.

This Is a Disney movie?

Studio Ghibli has made a lot of good films! And two bad ones! Howl’s Moving Castle was bad and Tales From Earthsea was atrocious! I don’t love Kiki’s Delivery Service as much as everyone else does, but it’s enjoyable. And I count it as a Disney film because Disney did the English dubbing. This movie doesn’t have a villain. The climax involves a blimp crashing and Kiki, aka Mary Jane, flies on her broom and saves Tombo. It’s ironic that Kirsten Dunst was a damsel in distress in the Spider-Man trilogy and her character is the one being the savior in this movie. I like this movie. The characters are great, the animation is great, and the relationships are great. My sister is obsessed with this film. I’m not too obsessed with it, but it’s enjoyable. I still think Spirited Away is better, though.

The Contenders
11 Fantasia 2000

The first Fantasia does have a Villain. Chernabog. He’s the most iconic villain Disney has ever created. The sequel has gotten nothing. No villain, no Chernabog. Nothing. And that sucks.

12 The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

Better animation than most cartoons nowadays.

13 Toy Story

Although it's got an antagonist- Sid Phillips- Sid can't be a true villain because he had no way of knowing that the toys were alive until they make it known when trying to save Buzz from being blown up. And I think Sid was more misunderstood than evil. It's theorized that he did what he did because he was a lonely kid with no friends, an overactive imagination, and not much of a home life. And he does change after this. He gives up his mutilation of toys and grows up to be a garbage man. He looks and seems better and happier, and it's theorized that he became a garbage man to save toys that people have thrown away. I don't think Sid was really as evil as he seemed.

Even though Sid is just a kid he is still considered a villain. Kids can be villains too you know?

14 Finding Neverland
15 Brother Bear

Brother Bear has a 38% on Rotten Tomatoes and Hercules has an 83%? Unbelieveable! I honestly don’t think Brother Bear is that bad. I found it to be pretty charming and it had some really great moments. You’re probably gonna tell me that Brother Bear does have a villain. But if you really think about it, it honestly doesn’t. Denali isn’t really a villain. He was just doing what’s right. His brother Sitka was killed by a bear. And then he thought his other brother Kenai was killed by a bear. So he wanted to avenge their death. He didn’t know that Kenai was turned into a bear. So he didn’t know that he was hunting his own brother. He was just being a hero. I know people hate this movie, but I enjoy it quite a bit.

16 My Neighbor Totoro

I loved the scene where Kyle Broflovski and Kenny McCormick kissed and Jesus got angry and cartman got jealous cause he wanted the princess Kenny so Stan killed them all including himself sad cried tragic but true

17 Dumbo

Unless you include the Ringmaster and everyone who ridiculed Dumbo throughout the movie but its only because they didn't really understand him and what he was truly capable of.

Ringmaster and Pink elephants.

18 The Fox and the Hound

This was always a good movie.

This is such a good film

I think the bear count

19 Lady and the Tramp

The closest we come to a villain is the rat.

20 Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey

I voted this one because all the ones top ten have villains! But this is still a great film.

I love this film so much

21 Meet the Robinsons

This movie actually has a villain Doris an experiment gone wrong who gets Bowler Hat Guy to help her steal one of the time machines to go back in time to steal Lewis's invention to pass as his own and then get them to produce more robot hats like her to completely take over the world and destroy the future.

There bowler hat guy and dor 15

So underrated

22 Maleficent
23 Ratatouille
24 Saludos Amigos

It works well but I think it has a villain, let me know who it is by commenting on this page too. And someone besides Aconcagua.

25 Lilo & Stitch

We're being really strict on what we consider a villain, huh?
