A ruined future world has a mercenary hired to smuggle and protect a person of interest. I guess.
It's merely okay because it suddenly pivots into some fantasy nonsense. If it immediately established things, or if it eased into it, then it would have been far better. It's perfectly watchable, but not particularly recommended.

A man's fiancé is kidnapped, and he and his friend move to rescue her from what turns out to be ancient Chinese mystical forces.
A phenomenal movie. Fun and interesting. The acting is great, the story is great, the setting is great. I easily consider this mandatory viewing, and I think it holds up even after all these years.

In a global event, a failed hobby singer-songwriter is shifted into another universe where The Beatles are unknown, and he steps into their role.
Messy and awkward in places, and definitely not written as a proper romance. Vaguely-recommended for people who want to see one perspective on the alternate reality theme.

Halloween town converts to Christianity and tries to take over the world.
A simple, short, bubblegum movie. It's quaint and adorable.

For the first time, a child is adopted by a corporation, who uses him to create the reality TV show of reality TV shows.
A fantastic movie that resolves like a hot shower after a good day's work building a deck; refreshing and wholesome.
