1. Inception
- Release date: 30 July 2010
- IMDb: 8.8
- Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page
The startup took the concept of meeting in dreams to a whole new level. The film tells the story of a group that steals company secrets by entering the dreams of executives. This group is then hired to plant ideas in a CEO’s mind. It’s the kind of mind-blowing movie.
2. Interstellar
- Release date: 7 November 2014
- IMDb: 8.6
- Cast: Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain
Interstellar has gone down in history as one of director Christopher Nolan’s best films. The time travel method used in the movie is beautiful, as it is based on the work of theoretical physicist Kip Thorne. Carl Sagan’s book Contact, which was later filmed, was based on the same works. It is a unique experience to see these works with the interpretation of Christopher Nolan.
3. Mad Max: Fury Road
- Release date: May 15, 2015
- IMDb: 8.1
- Cast: Tom Hardy, Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult
In a post-apocalyptic world, Crazy Max is a reinterpretation of the 1979 film, which is about a rebellion within a community ruled by oppression. It should be added that the effort spent on the film was huge. It’s an exciting movie every moment.
4. Edge of Tomorrow
- Release date: June 6, 2014
- IMDb: 7.9
- Cast: Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt, Bill Paxton
Coming out with the slogan of live, die, repeat, Tomorrow’s Edge has a scenario where a soldier fighting aliens returns to the same day and same time every time he dies. The movie is actually inspired by a manga called “All You Need Is Kill”. The inspiration for author Hiroshi Sakurazaka is video games. The feature of restarting as you die in the games is the starting point of both works.
