Movies that feel likeThe Little Prince (2015)

Based on the best-seller book 'The Little Prince', the movie tells the story of a little girl that lives with resignation in a world where efficiency and work are the only dogmas. Everything will change when accidentally she discovers her neighbor that will tell her about the story of the Little Prince that he once met.

If you loved The Little Prince, the closest films we have are Flow (2024), Epic (2013) and Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole (2010). All three share The Little Prince's epic and whimsical feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Boy & the World (2014).
