The Best Movies On Disney+ Right Now
Disney+ truly has it all.

Disney+ is still a relatively new streaming service compared to the likes of Netflix and Hulu, which have been around for decades at this point, but that doesn’t mean it doesn't have some awesome movies that you can stream right now.
From superheroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe to intergalactic battles in the Star Wars movies, there is so much to stream with so many Disney+ prices and plans to choose from. It’s up to you to decide what the best movies are to watch. Here is what is available to stream right now.
Hocus Pocus
In Hocus Pocus, A trio of comedic witches (played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy) are resurrected by a teenager on Halloween night in Salem, Massachusetts. Now, it’s up to the kids to somehow banish the witches for eternity before they steal the souls of the children around them to stay young forever.

Hocus Pocus 2
I’d been waiting for the sequel to come for months, and finally, it arrived. The sisters are raised again, with a new generation of high schoolers, and are given a supposed fake black flame candle, but turns out, it’s very real. And now, the Sanderson sisters want even more power. The sequel, which stars the original trio, including Bette Midler, is full of witchery and fun, so be sure to check it out.

Flubber
If you’re looking for a Robin Williams classic, look no further than Flubber. This iconic comedy starring the famous comedian tells the story of a professor who discovered “flubber,” but in discovering this, he ends up missing his wedding. Now, in order to win his fiance back, he tries to use this new invention, but it ends up taking a turn. As someone who grew up watching Robin Williams movies all the time, this was always one of my guilty pleasures - and I’m sure you’ll love it just as much as I do.
The Peanuts Movie
Ever wonder what the classic Peanuts characters would look like if they were CGI? The Peanuts Movie answers that and more, following the loveable Charlie Brown as he tries to win over his crush while Snoopy goes on his own epic adventure to defeat his enemies – as Snoopy does. It’s such a cute movie and a must-watch during the holidays.

Hamilton
Watch Lin-Manuel Miranda’s beloved musical come to life in Hamilton, a recording of the Broadway production. This story of Alexander Hamilton spans years, from his early days in the American Revolution to his marriage to Eliza Hamilton, and later, to his time as the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States - all set to some awesome contemporary music.
The Art Of Racing In The Rain
Based on the novel of the same name and starring This Is Us cast member, Milo Ventimiglia, and actress Amanda Seyfried, this story follows a race car driver, Denny, and the unbreakable bond that he shares with his dog, Enzo, a golden retriever that learns lessons not only from racing, but from his owner as well.

In this remake of the classic 1961 musical, based on the Broadway musical of the same name, two people from opposing cultures fall in love and have to find a way to be together despite their rival gangs fighting each other for territory in the 1950s. Nominated for several Academy Awards - and won in the case of Ariana DeBose as Anita - this remake is one to remember and should be the example of how to properly redo a classic movie.
