Columbia Movies, Ranked
Big Movies, Bigger Main Character Energy
Columbia Pictures has been attached to so many corners of my movie diet: action, comedy, drama, franchises, comfort rewatches, and full main-character cinema. This ranking is based on the Columbia-produced films I have watched, sorted by ra
- 1
Django Unchained (2012)★★★★★From the opening moments, Quentin Tarantino’s cinema confidence is undeniable.
- 2
★★★★★Visceral from the first frame, with no easing you in, but beneath the shock, this is a more confident and cinematic entry than before, with stronger visuals, better…
- 3
Click (2006)★★★★★ - 4
Spectre (2015)★★★★½This film looks gorgeous. Hoyte van Hoytema really proves himself as a worthy successor to Roger Deakins.
- 5
★★★★½What unsettles me most is how calmly it presents something so catastrophic, as if total destruction can be triggered by routine, ego, and blind protocol.
- 6
Casino Royale (2006)★★★★½A grounded, physical Bond that leans on tension and clean action rather than gadget fantasy (thank God!).
- 7
Fury (2014)★★★★½Fury opens with a silhouette slicing through a blue washed battlefield, like a painting unfolding in real time.
- 8
★★★★½Mindblown 🤯 First time in a very long time na mabitin sa isang movie!
- 9

White House Down (2013)★★★★½ - 20
The Equalizer (2014)★★★★½Sherlock’s brain, Batman’s moral code, John Wick’s brutality, and John McClane’s DIY skills walk into a hardware store.
- 21
- 22
Skyfall (2012)★★★★Now this is a proper opening! Controlled and allowing the action to breathe, unlike the opening of Quantum of Solace with its super shaky camera movements and fast cuts.
- 23
Blade Runner 2049 (2017)★★★★Denis Villeneuve did not waste time world building on the first few frames.
- 24
Groundhog Day (1993)★★★★This one hooks me quickly because it starts with a lead character who is clearly selfish, sarcastic, and hard to root for.
- 25

Spider-Man 3 (2007)★★★★ - 37
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)★★★★ - 38
★★★★A laid back and nostalgic Tarantino film that focuses more on atmosphere, character hangouts, and tension simmering beneath the surface rather than constant action.
- 39
Escape Room (2019)★★★★ - 40
The Equalizer 2 (2018)★★★★The car fight scene where the assassin pretends to be Robert’s passenger is such a creative action setup.
- 41
A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025)★★★★Surprised that this is such a reflective emotional healing journey.
- 42
Risen (2016)★★★★When dealing with the era of Jesus, the sets, locations, and costumes are very important for immersing me in the period.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009)★★★ - 83
The Equalizer 3 (2023)★★★Best opening scene in the series. It immediately feels more cinematic, and the darker, old school brown color grading gives the film a different identity from the first…
- 84
Ghost Rider (2007)★★½ - 85
- 86
Last Action Hero (1993)★★½I feel like I was the kid, always wanting to watch a movie in the theater and always predicting what’s going to happen.

65 (2023)★★½ - 88
- 89
The Magnificent Seven (2016)★★½While watching this, it really reminds me a lot of Seven Samurai (1954).

- 102
Caught Stealing (2025)½Background noise kind of movie. Feels like a waste of Austin Butler’s talent.
