Top Ten Best Movies from Sony Pictures Animation

Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs is possibly the best Sony Pictures Animation movie to ever be produced. Sure, it doesn't stay true to the source material, but the movie makes up for it with its fun and enjoyable execution that delivers creative writing with an inventive script, really funny comedy, clever gags, and great plucky characters.

On top of that, it also offers one of the best examples of Pete Oswald's unique and cartoony art style of animation that works very well in CGI. With fluent movement and fast-paced slapstick, it fits the silly and goofy premise of the movie. I loved this movie!

Let me tell you a story as I write this in 2018. A year ago, I found myself at the movie theater, ready to purchase a ticket for Pixar's Coco. But while I was doing that, I saw an older Black woman purchasing some tickets for her and her grandsons to go see Sony's The Star. In my mind, I was flabbergasted that Sony Pictures Animation would be getting any money from them that holiday season when they deserved to see a much better movie with Coco rather than a movie by the same animation studio that made the reviled summer disaster that was The Emoji Movie.

Fast forward to 2018, and I'm at that same movie theater. Only this time, I wasn't giving my money to Disney or Pixar. This time, I gave my money to Sony. And let me tell you, for every second of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse that I saw, every penny that went into the ticket I bought was totally worth it.

Into the Spider-Verse isn't just quite arguably the best Spider-Man film to come out in recent years. It was also quite possibly one of, if not the, best animated films of 2018 and the best film of 2018 overall. And definitely Sony Pictures Animation's best one yet.

I loved pretty much everything about Into the Spider-Verse. I loved how the animation used a low frame rate to make it feel like a comic book come to life, I loved seeing how each of the Spider-Man counterparts was portrayed, and the story, soundtrack, and overall quality of the film blew pretty much every Spider-Man movie out of the water.

All in all, Into the Spider-Verse is a 10/10 film that I would watch over and over again, and I hope it wins at the Oscars.

Not only is this my favorite animated Sony movie, but it's also in my Top 3 Best Animated Movies. This is what got me into surfing in the first place. I love the characters, I love the story, I love the humor - everything about Surf's Up is top-notch, except for a few things:

1. Reggie (the otter with the afro hair)
2. Surf's Up 2: Wavemania is GOD AWFUL!

Aside from that, if you haven't watched Surf's Up already, go watch it. NOW!

By the way, my favorite character is Chicken Joe.

This movie was my childhood. I legitimately used to watch it seven times a day.

I love this movie. Great premise, amazing cast (and Mr. Santa, but whatevs), and - while I'm not a huge fan of the character designs - at least it's not Flint Lockwood.

I haven't seen this movie, but I'm sure it is good.

I really like Hotel Transylvania. My favorite character is Johnny. He is so funny.

It's got great animation and lovable characters.

They made this movie? I thought the people who made Shaun the Sheep did.

It is one of my favorite movies.

It isn't my favorite, but I giggled a few times, honestly.

Greatest video game adaptation of all time. Hands down.

The person who said they hated this movie should get dragged to Brazil.

I'll be back when this brilliantly great and enjoyable film is in the top 3.

I love this movie. It was my childhood, and I don't find it as annoying as the Chipmunks movies.

I liked this one better than the first one. The little baby is so cute.

Great movie, like the first one!

Fun cast, hard-hitting jokes, and an okay premise. Very similar to the first movie but enjoyable nonetheless.

This was pretty good. I personally liked this one.

Beautiful. A huge upgrade from the originals and, along with Captain Underpants, is one of the more underrated movies of 2017. Strong cast, decent jokes, and perfect animation.

It is much more faithful to its original source material than the live-action The Smurfs duology.

It's funny, cute, entertaining, and quirky. I like it.

This is easily the worst in the franchise.

Creative and engaging animated rendition of the ageless story of Christ's birth. Well done.

It only took me five minutes of watching this to realize how awful this movie is. The first one was great, but this was just an effortless sequel that tried to advertise WWE stars.

Still a better Open Season movie than the second and third ones.
