"Babe", "Mystery Men", and "October Sky". Would also recommend "A Little Princess", but only if you have little girls. They'd probably also like "Weird Al Yankovic: The Videos". For some reason, my cousin's two young boys love "Life Is Beautiful" and collapsed into laughter when Benigni is "translating" the German into Italian game-playing for his son.
Follow Ups:
When I was a kid, my parents took me to see movies like Planet of the Apes and James Bond movies.I think that scarred me for life.
So I d say, avoid weird sci-fi movies and bizarre spy thrillers. If you'd like your kids to remain celibate later on in life, you could try a whole host of R rated movies. "Boogie Nights" is pretty traumatizing...But for a balanced diet of adult interest and fun for kids movies,
I'd recommend "The Mask"(okay, half recommend the Mask, weird flick, man...), "Forrest Gump", and"Frequency".
