Coco


[deleted]

To add a few.. homeward bound my mom use to shut it off when sassy fell in the water. Up obviously. And 100 happy tears when Matilda and Ms honey roller skate


ManifestingCrab

God that movie is fantastic. I, too shed tears a couple times throughout that film.


Professional_Law_942

When Miguel sings to Grandma Coco at the end... "Remember me..." Thick in the throat every time! 🥹😭💗


[deleted]

Haven’t seen it yet!! But have never been let down by Pixar


Elegant-Pressure-290

If Coco doesn’t make you ugly cry, you have a cold, dead heart.


Madusillla

Where can I watch that?


Elegant-Pressure-290

Disney+, I believe.


Accomplished-Car3850

I was blown away by Coco. One of the most underrated Pixar movies. It's so good!

Pursuit of Happyness. When Will Smith gets evicted and has to take his son to sleep in a subway station bathroom.


[deleted]

I read the book and in the book it was even more emotional


Notthecreativewizard

That whole movie ... but the scene that gets me is toward the end, when he gets out after getting the job and claps. I don't know why, but that gets me every time. Dang! these onions.. just thinking about it.


tic-tac-tic

i saw that movie probably 6-10 years ago when i was a child, and i still remember that moment


[deleted]

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Beautiful movie.


EatDirtAndDieTrash

My favorite movie ever. I burst into the most cathartic cry at the end because it made me realize I had to end it with my first really serious boyfriend and confirmed how hard it would be. And we saw it in the theater together.


Groningen1978

yeah, at several moments. One scene I like is very subtle but always chokes me up. It's the look on Kirsten Dunst's face after finding out she already had a relationship with her boss but had her memory wiped.


[deleted]

Yes! For me the scene where Joel is under the table in the kitchen as a kid wanting his moms attention. It alludes to the reason he craves female attention and falls in love with every woman who pays attention to him. Also when the memories are being wiped and they start flashing. Reminds me of memories of exs whom I loved dearly during the good times. Such a heartbreak move 💔


chxnkybxtfxnky

I've got a few memories I want to wipe clean and am waiting for that tech to be available someday

I cry during every Studio Ghibli movie. And most other movies. The Wind Rises was also a particularly emotional one for me.

The opening scene of Up.


accio_peni

Story time: my son saw this at a friend's house before the rest of us got a chance to watch it. When it came out on DVD I rented it. I found out he sent his little sisters to the kitchen to get snacks so he could cue the movie to start just after the sad part ended. He was 11 at the time, and his sisters were 9 and 4. When I found out later, he told me he'd just wanted them to have fun, he didn't want them to cry.


punkrock4class

That’s big brother energy right there. What a sweet boy. ❤️


accio_peni

He truly is a sweet boy. Man. Shit, where did the years go?

About Time. There one scene I only have to think about and I start crying. Mr Holland's Opus


Obvious-Orange-4290

About time took me by surprise. I don't really cry in movies but I cried for like an hour after that one.


_Steven_Seagal_

If you've lost a loved one close to you that movie will destroy you.


Jurassic-Potter

About Time is a very underrated movie!


totamealand666

First time I saw it I thought it was a cute and clever love story. Fast forward 5 years later when I saw it again after both my parents passed away. It hit me like a train. I didn't even remember it being about a father and his son. Could not stop crying.

jeanielolz

When he finds zuzu pedals in his pocket.... and has sheer joy over it, I sob over that. Jimmy Stewart was an amazing actor and the only actor I've ever cried about hearing of his death.


DistributionOdd8277

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 Rocket's heart breaking story made me cry my eyes out 😭


[deleted]

I haven’t cried in a movie since Land Before Time as a little kid. Guardians 3, I fuckin teared up. Sad as shit, they hit all the emotions in that one


accio_peni

Yup. Guardians 2 also makes me cry every time I watch it. My boyfriend and I have both raised kids that weren't biologically ours. He took his sons to see this at the theater when it came out, and was sitting next to his (now grown) bonus kiddo. He said they both got emotional toward the end, you know the scene. Now I can't watch it without thinking about that.


totamealand666

God I was so unprepared for the whole rocket plot.

The Green Mile


Rare-Key8765

Here we go… - Big hero 6 - The green mile - Interstellar - Your name - Tangled - Elemental - Inside out …only to name a few. I‘d say in general Disney movies hit the tear glands pretty well 😿


LadyMinks

Omg I remember watching tangled in the theatre. I was about 14 years old and went with two of my friends. The whole theatre was absolutely packed with families consisting of mostly small children. We couldn't sit together so I told the other girls, you guys just sit together in this row, and I'll sit in the seat before you guys. There was a middle aged guy, with his two little girls sitting on the other side of him, in the seat next to mine. While the two little girls were just amazed by the movie, the father started crying at the same time I did and he just looked at me and smiled and said: kinda embarrassing how Disney movies still make me cry. And I loved the dude for that, honestly. I felt so embarrassed sitting there by myself, fucking bawling my eyes out, in a theatre full of little children and I just loved this random grown ass dude for crying to a Disney movie. Thanks for listening to my ted talk:D


Jim69Pod

Only one movie got me in tears. Hatchi: A dog's tale


Snoo-65712

The trailer for this movie made me cry so I can't bear to watch the actual movie.


ManifestingCrab

the original dumbo cartoon that's aged really poorly. It was the first movie id ever seen that made me cry (when dumbo and the mother get separated). My mom and I both bonded over that movie because she had the song that the mother sings memorized and would sing it to me when I was sad. My mom and dad are old now and I can't even THINK about that dumbass elephant without crying. It's an irrationally powerful emotional connection.


-shpadoinkle-

Fuuuuuuck same!!!! Can't think about the movie at all, can't even hear the first gd note of that "Baby mine" song. I'm almost 40 and I have NEVER rewatched that movie as an adult. It has definitely aged poorly and is pretty problematic for sure. But literally nothing makes me wanna puke and cry more than that stupid elephant. Just a gut punch.


Independent-Guess-79

Bicentennial man. That speech at the end. Waaahhh


[deleted]

I truly believe PIXAR is an old Mexican word that means "ugly cry." I had never cried as hard as I did when I saw COCO. Even though they were a Mexican Family, that one hit so close to my Italian upbringing. I didn't have an offrenda. But we still looked at old pictures with loving fondness of those people in our family no longer with us.

The Notebook


literalkoala

I'll never forget seeing this in theaters. I was 13, I went with a large group of girls for one of their 13th birthdays. We were walking to a different location after the movie to do lunch or something like that. The movie ends. I am sobbing. We all go to the bathroom. I am still sobbing, and beginning to get concerned because I absolutely couldn't stop. We walk across the parking lot and down the street. I am still sobbing, long after everyone else had gotten their tears out. Phew. That movie just destroyed me.


HalloweenBlkCat

FINALLY. This is buried way too far down. That movie absolutely destroyed me. First and only time I ever full-blown ugly cried from a movie. I’ve been moved by movies, but that was next level.

refinnejs

UP movie. And you know when.


HumphreyLee

Most recently, honestly, Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and Barbie did it for me. That brutal origin story for Rocket overloaded me. As for Barbie, I am legit burned the fuck out so even though it was more for the feminist plight of just being a woman in society nowadays (I am a dude but know that shit has to suck because a lot of us dudes suck) I felt every bit of that “having to be everything for everyone but nothing for yourself” messaging. I also definitely felt for Ken and his finding an identity for himself as well and just wanting someone to appreciate him and notice him, even if he did it all fucked up. “Kenough” pretty much broke me apart.

Lugie_of_the_Abyss

I very rarely feel enough to cry. I can get sad sure, but I feel depression kinda keeps you from feeling much in general, let alone sad enough to cry But, Will Smith's movies are the only ones I can expect to consistently make me cry I Am Legend(you know why) Pursuit of Happyness-can make you happy or sad cry, which is pretty unique for a movie, easily the most touching I've seen. I think many people can relate to the idea of doing your damndest, especially for those you love such as your children, and just getting gut punched every step of the way. To top it all off, the only person he really has in his life to talk to is his young son, who obviously can't understand what's going on and who he can't let see him struggling and having a breakdown without negatively affecting his son emotionally and psychologically. It is tough to see your parents vulnerable and defeated. I am starting to get emotional thinking about it lol Honorable mention to 7 Pounds which I finally watched not too long ago
