Bonding with your loved ones comes in many forms, and one of the most common traditions is movie night. If you have kids around, you might have to be extra picky with what you put on. While superhero movies tend to have violence in them due to fighting, here are some that are safe enough for young ones.
1. 'Shazam'
The story revolves around a foster child called Billy Batson who was separated from his mother when he was younger. Amidst all his efforts to reunite with her, he comes across a wizard who chooses him to be a superhero, turning into an adult with powers once he shouts "Shazam!" It sends a good message about how power should be held by those who are good at heart.

2. 'Bumblebee'
The "Transformers" franchise has been a successful one, mainly because everyone was amazed by the concept of robots that can transform into cars. Most of the titles might have some darker undertones, but "Bumblebee" is more about a teenage girl finding the Autobot. They do face enemies from Cybertron, but Charlie and Bumblebee's interactions are innocent enough.

3. 'Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse'
Who doesn't love Spider-Man? This move can be more kid-friendly especially because of the animated format. It's also quite interesting since it doesn't feature the standard figure for the role, Peter Parker. This particular movie follows Miles Morales, along with other individuals from different universes who share the same powers.

4. 'The Incredibles'
Just to put it out there, all Pixar movies are good for movie night, and a fun one at that. Since we're looking into superhero movies, why not watch a film that focuses on a family of them? "The Incredibles" is a nice introduction to older Pixar films as it will also appeal to the adults in the room who saw the films when they were younger.

6. 'Big Hero 6'
Being doesn't always mean that you were born with powers. Sometimes, when you have enough skill, you can invent the right kind of tools to gain an advantage. Such is the situation of a young genius, Hiro Hamada, who is well beyond his years in his skills in robotics. It helps if you have a programmable healthcare provider like Baymax too.
