Okay, we understand, all movies are for all people regardless of gender. However, numerous comments on this post 28 Fun and Heartwarming Modern Teen Movies on Netflix, came from moms asking if maybe couldn’t we please suggest a few more movies that might be a little more “teen boy” friendly. We felt it couldn’t hurt to give a few more suggestions that were outside the Teen YA Rom Com genre that seems to kind of dominate the streaming services at the moment.
Not every teen boy is super excited to watch romance movies (and honestly, neither is every teen girl). So, if you’re looking for a movie to watch for family movie night and you want to move beyond some of the relationship and general drama fare that gets much of the attention today. Here is a list of very diverse movies that can appeal to a wider audience of teens.
For moms of teen boys, these might be a little bit more in line with what you were asking us to help you find. And as a mom of a teen boy myself, I can say we’ve watched quite a few of these and I’ve enjoyed them equally as much as him. There is some Marvel movie action going on, along with animation, sci-fi, animals, sports and comedy. No doubt, there has to be something here that will appeal to just about any teen movie watcher.
