　　Godzilla vs. Kong (2021)

Godzilla vs. Kong Official Trailer To its immense credit, Godzilla vs. Kongdoes not even pretend to care about its human characters. Their maneuvers and plans are only brief interludes between the spectacle that everyone actually came to the theater for. Gratifyingly, when Kong and Godzilla finally do start fighting, its worth the wait.

The journey to get there is not quite as satisfying, but the human cast is doing their best to keep things engaging, and Rebecca Hall and Brian Tyree Henry are particularly effective at this particular kind of nonsense. What we came for is a wrestling match between two giant creatures, though, and that doesnt disappoint.

　　Princess Mononoke (1997)

PRINCESS MONONOKE | Official English Trailer Hayao Miyazaki is not known for being an action filmmaker, butPrincess Mononokeis one of the exceptions to that general rule. The film follows a young man caught in the middle of a war between industrious humans and the gods of the natural world that they are destroying.

The film reflects many of Miyazakis preoccupations, including his concern over the state of the natural world. Its also one of his longest movies, but the world he builds is so utterly singular that the running time flies by. Every Miyazaki movie is great, and Mononoke is one of the very best.

　　The Revenant (2015)

The Revenant | Official Trailer [HD] | 20th Century FOX Leonardo DiCaprio won his Oscar for this physically taxing performance, but The Revenantis at its best when its leaning into the skills of its award-winning cinematographer, Emmanuel Lubezki. A man (DiCaprio) is left for dead by one of his comrades after a severe bear attack.

The Revenant follows his journey both back to civilization and eventually to get revenge. DiCaprios physical commitment to the role is impressive, as is the fluid camerawork that takes us through many of the films most muscular, thrilling sequences.
