DreamWorks Animation's Filipino folklore-inspired fantasy adventure. One of the best-reviewed animated films of 2026 and a likely Best Animated Feature contender, but almost nobody saw it. The acclaimed-but-underseen pick worth your weekend.

Why we picked it: Exceptional critic and audience reception, with a strong family-night angle.
