IF (2024)
Let your imagination run wild with the heartwarming family movie IF, the #20 biggest box office hit of 2024 so far.
From multiple-Emmy-nominated writer-director John Krasinski (The Office, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, A Quiet Place), IF is about a girl who discovers that she can see everyone’s imaginary friends (aka IFs) and embarks on a magical adventure to reconnect forgotten IFs with their kids.
Cailey Fleming (Judith Grimes in The Walking Dead) stars as Bea, alongside Emmy winner Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) as Cal, a role that’s already earned him a 2024 Kids' Choice Award nomination for Favourite Movie Actor.
The all-star voice cast is led by Steve Carell as Blue, Phoebe Waller-Bridge as Blossom, and the late Louis Gossett Jr as Lewis, with Awkwafina as Bubble, and John Krasinski as Marshmallow. Also see if you can spot the voices of Amy Schumer, Bill Hader, Blake Lively, Bradley Cooper, Emily Blunt, George Clooney, Jon Stewart, Matt Damon, Matthew Rhys and Sam Rockwell.
In their 4/5-star review, Common Sense Media recommends IF for ages 6+, hailing the film as “imaginative… poignant and full of wonder… a mind-bending, eye-popping, musical extravaganza that's truly unforgettable.”
