An everyday man’s is kidnapped to make amends for past wrongs he couldn’t guess at.
I can see it was trying, but boy is it inconsistent action without real underlying substance.
A remake of Oldboy – (2003 movie)

Alien refugees come to Earth, only to become squatters and criminals while the world looks on. After 20 years, the local government tries to relocate them to better facilities only to discover alien technologies they had been salvaging and repairing.
A unique setting and good story. It’s not a super-fantastic movie, but it’s definitely highly recommended. It has a high “ick” factor.

A superpower is granted to three boys, but their significant differences impact its development in them. Or something.
I find it tense and riveting. It also sends a philosopher! (sort of)

Harry Potter works to chip away at Voldermort’s base of power, while Voldermort’s army holds a tight grip on the whole of the wizarding world.
Worthy of a three-part episode in a TV series. Bad writing.

The magical world cowers in fear as it’s recruited or picked off by Voldemort’s forces.
This rides on the successes of its predecessors while technically going nowhere itself. The writing is far better, but it’s an episode. You can really feel how much this movie is milking the franchise.

Harry Potter gathers his own strength in response to Voldemort.
A little more adult than its predecessors, but still badly written; bubblegum.

A murderer somehow breaks free from a maximum security prison to break into a school to hug his godson.
It’s terrible writing just like the other movies, but it’s watchable.
