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)

A mild mannered professor is thought to be older than he appears.
It's a little off in places, but has a nice consistent tone. Recommended only if you loved it's earlier movie, The Man from Earth - (2007 movie).

A series of non-cannon short animated films inspired by The Matrix - (1999 movie).
Better than the main series in some cases. I rather love every one of these short films.

I didn't like it compared to The Stepford Wives - (1975 movie).

I don't know how to describe this without spoiling it.
It's good because it's pre-woke and can handle difficult topics.
Let's face it, this was likely inspired by Kimba the White Lion

Two people connect because of a portal through time in the shape of a mailbox.
Awkward in various ways, but I can see the charm. Not recommended because The Lake House - (2006 movie) is vastly superior.
This inspired The Lake House - (2006 movie), which is a lot better.

A mailbox sends objects back and forth through time, and it's discoverers only think to write love letters.
Very well-paced and thoughtful; highly recommended.
Inspired by Il Mare - (2000 movie)
