Top 10 Rewatchable Animated Films of the Past 25 Years

Collider published a ranking of the ten most rewatchable animated movies of the past 25 years, placing Kung Fu Panda at number one.

The list evaluates films by rewatch value based on originality, entertainment, story, writing, animation, characters, comedy, action and overall quality, and includes entries such as Shrek, Spirited Away, Ratatouille, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Monsters, Inc., Moana, A Silent Voice, The Simpsons Movie and Klaus.

The piece highlights reasons for several placements: it credits Kung Fu Panda for its mix of action, comedy, memorable characters and kinetic choreography; describes Ratatouille's sensory "food physics" and Parisian views; praises Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse for vibrant, comic-book-influenced animation; and calls Spirited Away possibly the best anime film of all time.

The article frames the selections as spanning the last quarter-century and notes that a new Simpsons movie has been announced for 2027, which the piece says will face a tough task competing with The Simpsons Movie.
