#1: Hop
Hop was released back in 2011.
And while it didn’t receive the most love back then…

A young rabbit who has to follow in his father’s footsteps of becoming the Easter Bunny.
But is that what E.B. wants?
Not by a long shot.

Or if you want a lighthearted movie to watch with the family.
And if you’re not convinced…
I’ll let the trailer speak for itself:

Rabbits may be cute.
But they’re also quite the mischievous bunch.
And even if you try to catch them unguarded…
Good luck chasing after them because bunnies run around really fast.
But what’s any of this got to do with the next movie, you ask?
Well, Peter Rabbit’s the most mischievous bunny you’ll ever meet.
And other than his signature blue jacket…
He’s always 2 steps ahead with his next fun plan.

#4: Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness
This movie might be stretching the definition of a rabbit…
Because our protagonist has a unique condition.
You see, Chickenhare isn’t your typical bunny.
He’s half-chicken and half-hare, hence the name.
But does that take away from the story?
Not in the slightest.
In fact, it’s a wonderful animated film about accepting who you are…
And rising to the challenges by recognizing your strengths.
Plus, it’s all wrapped up in an Indiana Jones-like exploration story.

Then the choice’s a no-brainer: you have to watch Chickenhare.
#5: Over the Moon
Do you love touching stories?
What about beautiful animations?
And what if we wrapped it all up in a musical adventure?
Well, if all 3 questions were to your liking…
Then Netflix’s special Over the Moon from 2020 is the animated film for you.
It’s a movie that teaches us about pain and grief.
Why it’s normal to go through these emotions…
And how moving on is different for everyone.
“But where exactly does the rabbit come in, then?”
I’ll be honest, this film doesn’t center around a cute little bunny.
We follow Fei Fei’s story instead.
However, she does have a cute pet bunny, Bungee.
A loving and loyal rabbit that sticks by her side no matter the challenge.
So if you want to comfort your pet rabbit…
Putting this movie on and watching it together will make for a great bonding moment.
