Top 50 Best Coming Of Age Movies To Watch In 2025

The family of four consists of Olivia (Mother), Mason (Father), Samantha (Elder kid), and Mason Jr. also known as MJ (Younger Kid) lives in Texas.

Being the happily married couple earlier, Mason and Olivia are divorced at the moment. Olivia has the whole access to the children and Mason can visit them during the weekends.

But recently, Mason hasn’t come to see the kids yet. He is busy building up his career.

Fed up with each other, the couple kickstarts their sexual life not thinking about the kids even a bit.

Samantha is a grown-up and she knows what is going on. But her brother MJ is too young for this.

He is frustrated by his family and all these incidents. This movie beautifully speaks about how a situation, and happening in the family affects the children, their growth, and their perspective.

Another slapping of realizations into people fills this movie. It tops the list of coming-of-age movies even after ages of release.

Winning three Oscars and being nominated for many other awards, this movie also won hearts.

Chiron, the Black American doesn’t have a proper family background. He lives with his toxic mother Paula.

Paula doesn't care about Chiron even a bit, she is always busy thinking about her life and dealing with it.

Chiron is ignored and that affects him firstly. Furthermore, he’s bullied and he doesn’t get why he is bullied.

As he grows, he finds a friend, who’s a drug dealer, Juan, and stays most of the time with him and his girlfriend Teresa.

Their place is his escape from the bullies. Slowly, Juan helps Chiron take care of himself by giving some advice.

Chiron takes his advice and at a point starts making his own decisions. This beautiful movie is featured in three parts.

One is where Chiron is a kid, the other is where he is a bit grown up from being a kid, and the next is where he’s an adult.

Every phase has something to take home and I think that is the beauty of this film.

Call Me By Your Name is also a movie about a gay couple who weren’t meant to be.

It is based on a novel that was written by Andre Aciman. This movie is about Elio, born in an Italian family, who lives in Italy, and Oliver who is a research assistant of Elio’s professor father.

Elio is rich and sophisticated. He is so close to his parents and has everything he wants.

They spend a good time and togetherness when Oliver visits Elio’s in Italy. They both discover that they are attracted to each other.

The day comes when Oliver has to go away. Elio sends him off after a good trip.

But he breaks down. There are Elio’s parents who talk him out of it and console him.

Three years later, there’s a call from Oliver with shocking news. This film, in my perspective, is more about parenting than about coming out.

The relationship Elio has with his parents, especially his bond with his father is so beautiful.

It is a great movie except for the explicit sexual content and is a must-watch in the list of coming-of-age movies.

This movie is humane and realistic. It is about kids who are homeless and live in motels.

People get stuck with this movie and they take time to move on. Moonee, the six-year-old’s mother Halley survives on welfare and lives in a motel at the watch of Bobby, the motel manager.

With Moonee, there are her friends also who accompany her playing pranks with people in and around the Walt Disney Motel.

Bobby finds that there are parenting issues and especially with Moonee. Also, he has a soft corner for her.

Halley is in charge of her best friend Ashley’s son Scooty but she does not take care of her daughter or Scooty.

She is so lethargic and careless. She smokes in her room and watches television all the time while Ashley works away to feed them.

Will she ever turn responsible? This movie is highly suggested to be watched for the acting and for the wonderful story.

Parenting is one of the huge things that impact people’s lives and this movie deliberately hit that into your head.

The relationship one has with his/her siblings is limitless and cannot be drawn inside an outline.

The sisters parted long ago but now, they are in a situation where they have to meet and live under the same roof.

Beth is sick and that’s the news. The movie takes all the twists and revelations from that point.

All this has to end and a wedding is the only solution. This simple story with emotions and dramatic twists is a great pick for the movie time.

Kayla is the main character of this story, she is an eighth-grader who has just a week more left in eighth grade.

There’s one person who interacts with her and she doesn’t respond properly. And that person is her single father.

Kayla, as a step to express herself, starts YouTube. She expresses herself as the girl who she wants to be rather than the girl she actually is.

It is really tough to let people know the actual you, right? At least for some of us, it is.

After being all stressed, Kayla finally finds her way. And that is going to be the last and adventurous week of her eighth grade.

Will she overcome her fear? This movie perfectly draws an outline of what could possibly be the backstory of an introverted teen.

It is so perfect and also is one of the best coming-of-age movies.
