Like Christmas, Easter also has a distinctly Christian background, as it originally celebrated the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Of course, Easter is also celebrated by atheists, who focus more on celebrating spring, family gatherings, and the wild hunt for hidden Easter eggs.
We now want to show that Easter diversity with our list of the best Easter films of all time, spanning several decades, in which classic (and sometimes hard to digest) biblical epics are as important as light-hearted comedies and rousing musicals for the whole family. In any case, not all titles are Christian…
The best Easter movies – 20th place:
Hop – Easter Bunny or Superstar (2011)
Director: Tim Hill
Occupation: James Marsden, Kaley Cuoco, Russell Brand (voice) et al
Of course, the Easter bunny should not be missing in an Easter special. His son is the title hero in the turbulent Easter joke “Hop – Easter Bunny or Superstar” and he must choose between a career as a drummer or joining the Easter family business. The sweet and wonderful animated furry animal not only gets to know countless personalities, but also learns the value of friendship and responsibility.

Even if the story is a bit too predictable, ‘Hop’ turns out to be a very humorous family film, which is especially entertaining for the children while the parents can enjoy the other recommendations from our special.
