Movies that feel likeMeet the Robinsons (2007)

Lewis, a brilliant young inventor, is keen on creating a time machine to find his mother, who abandoned him in an orphanage. Things take a turn when he meets Wilbur Robinson and his family.

If you loved Meet the Robinsons, the closest films we have are Mr. Peabody & Sherman (2014), Hoppers (2026) and Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989). All three share Meet the Robinsons' witty and playful feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Stuart Little 2 (2002).
