10 Movies to Watch If You Love The BFG

In this movie, based on Roald Dahl's novel of the same name, Mara Wilson stars as a peculiar young girl who discovers she possesses telekinesis. Just like Sophie in The BFG, Matilda is a bookworm who is often misunderstood by those around her.

If you love Sophie and The BFG's adventures, then you will definitely get a kick out of this fantasy film as a boy travels to the world of Fantasia to stop a storm called Nothing from devouring the land.

A 19-year-old named Alice falls down a rabbit hole in this kooky take on Lewis Carroll's fantasy novels. Not only are the films both based on children's novels, but they also feature strong female characters with a curiosity for the unknown.

After finding the golden ticket in a bar of chocolate, one young boy has the opportunity of a lifetime to tour Willy Wonka's mysterious chocolate factory. Not only does the film have the same quirky vibe of The BFG, but it's also based on a Roald Dahl classic.

The series's plot is almost identical to The BFG as a young girl travels to an unknown land and befriends a mysterious beast. If you think Giant Country is beautiful, just wait until you see Narnia during Winter.

If you couldn't get enough of the magical creatures in The BFG, you should definitely check out the adventure film based on Northern Lights. Just like Sophie, the main character is also an orphan with a big imagination.

Not only does actress Ruby Barnhill, who plays Sophie, remind us a lot of a young Drew Barrymore, but both films are also directed by mastermind Steven Spielberg.

While Sophie has the crazy realization that giants are real, Harry Potter has the crazy realization that he's actually a wizard. The film will leave you with a magical feeling as you travel through the mysterious halls of Hogwarts.

Adapted from yet another one of Roald Dahl's memorable books, the children's film is just as much intriguing as it is frightening as an English orphan boy travels to NYC by means of a giant peach.

Just like The BFG, this romantic fantasy is a timeless classic as a young farmhand named Westley attempts to rescue his true love.
