If you’re after a fun movie to throw on tonight, you’re in luck. Netflix has uploaded animated science fantasy adventure Nimona to YouTube, making the entire film available to watch online for free.
Based on the graphic novel by ND Stevenson, Nimona follows the titular shapeshifter (voiced by Chloë Grace Moretz) as she tries to help knight turned fugitive Ballister Boldheart (voiced by Riz Ahmed) clear his name. Leading the hunt for Bal is his boyfriend Ambrosius Goldenloin (voiced by Eugene Lee Yang), though it’s probably more accurate to call him an ex at this point.
Having just won two Annie Awards over the weekend, Nimona is also nominated for Best Animated Feature at next month’s Academy Awards. It’s perfect for a family movie night, packed with positive themes such as individuality and acceptance, as well as characters who are generally more likeable and less murderous than in the original comic.
