Mistaken for someone important, a man is kidnapped and held hostage.
Revolutionary Marxists fuck everything up again. Overall an okay movie. If you're into the theme, and like dirt and poverty, then this is for you.
FIXME - If re-watched, ensure subtitles work.

The vanguard of an alien race fleeing from their ageing star contest control of the earth and the survivors of humanity.
A bit stiff, but quite good.
I have not seen (listened-to) the Russian-language version.

A military guy with no memory awakens to a world invaded by machines.
A low-effort confusing movie with no real story arc or resolution. Not recommended.

An optics specialist is sent to investigate the unusual readings the military is getting from his equipment.
A solid movie all around. Great action and a good world, but with enough fuzzy science and The A-Team-style jury-rigging to rivet it solidly to TV-movie quality.

(trailer)
The story of [ 1 ] the seven samurai [ 2 ] the 47 ronin the 21 Sihks defending a fort.
It's not too over-the-top Bollywood, so it's a perfectly watchable "yay us" hero story.
Based on actual events.

Follows a unit in the 101st Airborne Division during World War 2.
Quite a good story. It's full of faces I know. Great acting and spectacular realism.
Note: This video style is shaky.

Newly-developed military nano-technology is stolen by terrorists in a plot to take over the world, and only a super-elite team chosen from the international best can stop them.
This movie is another example of both an astonishingly wide gap between its original audience and current audience, and a needless unimagination in original movie universe-building authorship.
Continues with G.I. Joe - Retaliation - (2013 movie).
I'll take proper notes when I re-watch this.

A documentary following soldiers fighting the aliens left over from an invasion.
I rather liked this! People talk about this being low budget, but until it's pointed out I doubt someone would really notice.
