What Makes an "Easter Movie"?
Watching movies on Easter is a cherished tradition for many families. It’s a time when loved ones gather together, to enjoy each other's company, share laughter, and create unforgettable memories.
Is There Any Good Easter Movies on Netflix?
Yes, there's no single recipe for an Easter movie. Some, like "Journey to Bethlehem" (2023), tell the classic stories of the season. Others, like "A Week Away" (2021), offer heartwarming tales that celebrate faith, family, and new beginnings. And a few, like "Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget" (2023), might just surprise you with a quirky Easter twist! The important thing is to find a movie that resonates with you and your loved ones.
10 Best Easter Movies on Netflix for Kids & Adults
Journey to Bethlehem (2023)
Feeling the Christmas vibes this Easter? No worries! The timeless story of the birth of Jesus is retold in this fun musical, which details the challenges of young Mary during her pregnancy and King Herod's efforts to kill the young messiah. We're talking catchy tunes with a serious dose of faith, inspiration, and life lessons that'll stick with you long after the credits roll.
The Two Popes (2019)
If you’re in the mood for a critically acclaimed art film this Easter, you might try this quiet but compelling movie starring Anthony Hopkins as former Pope Benedict XVI, having a conversation the soon-to-be Pope Francis (played Jonathan Pryce). From director Fernando Meirelles and writer Anthony McCarten—who speculated what might have been said when Pope Benedict XVI made the historic, unprecedented decision to retire—it is a surprisingly compelling conversation. But this one isn’t for kids— it’s an Easter movie for the adults in the room.
The Pope's Exorcist (2023)
Why not keep the Pope theme going this Easter? It’s really his day, after all! (You know, after Jesus.) Directed by Julius Avery, this 2023 supernatural horror flick stars Russell Crowe as “the James Bond of exorcists,” aka Father Gabriele Amorth. To say The Pope’s Exorcist is “based on a true story” would be a stretch, but it is based on the memoirs of the real-life priest, Father Gabriele Amorth, who worked as an official exorcist for the Catholic Church from 1986 until his death in 2016. Once again, this is not a movie for kids either. Save this one for the adult Easter celebration!
The Chosen (2019)
If you’re looking for a straightforward, no-frills adaptation of the Gospels to watch on Netflix on Easter, you might try "The Chosen", an eight-episode Christian miniseries starring Jonathan Roumie as Jesus. It doesn’t actually get to the part where Jesus is crucified and rises again, but you already know that part of the story, don’t you?
I Can Only Imagine (2018)
Get ready for a tearjerker (with a happy ending, we promise!). Based on the true story behind MercyMe's song of the same title, this poignant biopic follows Bart, a high school football star who is raised by his abusive father, Arthur. Bart is forced to give up the sport after suffering a career-ending injury, and he decides to turn to music. However, when Arthur gets diagnosed with cancer, Bart's complicated relationship with his father takes an unexpected turn, eventually inspiring him to write the best-selling Christian song of all time.
Over the Moon (2020)
While not explicitly related to the Easter holiday, this animated Netflix original film features an adorable bunny sidekick. It’s also a musical, about a girl named Fei Fei who builds a rocket to the moon in search of the Chinese moon goddess Chang’e. Along for the ride on Fei Fei’s adventure is her pet rabbit Bungee, who is a perfect, holiday-appropriate companion this Easter.
Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (2023)
While "Over the Moon" caters to the bunny bunch, Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget brings back the OG chick flick (well, hen flick?) for a side-splitting adventure. Remember Rocky and Ginger from the hilarious 2000 movie? They're all grown up and living the dream in a peaceful, chicken-only haven. But their idyllic life gets scrambled when their curious daughter Molly decides to break free.
A Week Away (2021)
Need a movie that's both fun and uplifting for the whole family? Look no further than "A Week Away"! This lively musical follows Will Hawkins (played by Kevin Quinn), a teenager who gets shipped off to a Christian summer camp – not exactly his idea of a good time. Just a heads-up, there might be a few cases of happy tears, so have some tissues handy!
Blue Miracle (2021)
This movie isn't your typical Easter flick, but it's definitely a feel-good watch for the whole family. Imagine a washed-up boat captain, down on his luck, and a struggling orphanage about to go belly-up. When these two seemingly lost souls cross paths, a crazy (but totally awesome) plan hatches. They'll team up for a high-stakes fishing competition, with the orphanage's future hanging in the balance.
Come Sunday (2018)
This isn't your average Easter basket stuffer, but if you're looking for something powerful and inspiring, then "Come Sunday" (2018) might be just the ticket. This Netflix original features a star-studded cast, including Chiwetel Ejiofor, Jason Segel, and Martin Sheen. The story follows Bishop Carlton Pearson, a renowned preacher who faces a major crisis of faith. When he challenges traditional beliefs about hellfire and brimstone, things get heated (pun intended) within his congregation and beyond. Can he stand by his convictions and find a new path, or will he lose everything he's built?
