Best epic movies I probably haven't seen?
I'm looking for a good epic movie or trilogy to veg out on.

Something relatively newer, but I can make exceptions if it's older as long as it has high quality production value, good audio and sound track, and decent special effects for its time.

Any suggestions?

I've watched all of the Alien, LOTR, Star Wars, Star Trek movies.. The old epics from the 80's/90's/2000's like Last of the Mohicans, The Patriot, etc. too..

I'm looking for something similar, though. Hell, even a good courtroom drama I haven't seen would be cool.

What else is there to watch?

Re: Best epic movies I probably haven't seen?
I rented Tenet last week, and I'm still not sure what I saw....shrug

I was thinking about maybe renting all the Men in Black movies after the new one is available to rent. At least that will be funny and fun.

It's been really hard to find a good new release movie for about the past 3-4 years.

Lately, I've been rediscovering the beauty of old films.

One of the best epics, one which will also stir the emotions, perhaps one of the best films ever made: The Four Feathers (1939). Can watch it free here:



If you want an epic film with probably the greatest special effects, greatest stories of redemption and conversion, greatest villains, not to mention greatest cinematography ever put to film, then check out the blu ray transfer on the 50th Anniversary edition of Ben-Hur (1959). You will need a proper 4K HDR television or other high quality display to fully appreciate this marvel:



If you like dramas, particularly crime/courtroom style dramas or film noir, then check out the following:

The Big Heat (1953)
Dead End (1937)
The Killers (1964)
The Desperate Hours (1955)
Five Star Final (1931)
In a Lonely Place (1950)
Dark Passage (1947)

It's time to rediscover the classics, OP. You won't be disappointed.

Tenet is a movie about the character Neil, told in 2nd person perspective. See, now the movie is interesting. The movie is really cool, once you understand the perspective.
