   Interstellar (2014)

   ★★★★★

   Natuparan din yung pangarap kong mapanood ang Interstellar sa IMAX.

2. 2
   28 Years Later: The Bone Temple (2026)

   ★★★★★

   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. 3
   Aliens (1986)

   ★★★★★

   <i>"Get away from her, you bitch!" </i> I really appreciate the old school filmmaking craft here.

   Cargo (2013)

   Father and child in a zombie apocalypse trope, but this one has more heart.

    Full Metal Jacket (1987)

    ★★★★

    Starts darkly funny then slowly turns into a cold, unsettling war experience.

21. 21
    Stranger Things 5: The Finale (2025)

    ★★★★

    Feels like an Inception x Transformers: Dark of the Moon x The Dark Knight Rises.

22. 22
    Disclosure Day (2026)

    ★★★★

    Right from the start, I was already impressed with the blocking, continuous shots, and cinematography.

23. 23
    The End of Oak Street (2026)

    ★★★★

    Wildly entertaining. The trailers really don’t do justice to how fun, dangerous, and surprisingly intense this movie actually is.

24. 24
    Legion (2010)

    ★★★★

    The film starts with nice cinematic landscape photography and detailed close up shots.

25. 25
    The Terminator (1984)

    ★★★★

    I love how the film establishes the Terminator as a pure force of intent from the moment he arrives.

26. 26
    Greenland (2020)

    ★★★½
27. 27
    The Day After Tomorrow (2004)

    Alive in Joburg (2005)

    ★★★½

    Good short film that really works as a pitch piece.

31. 31
    Dark Skies (2013)

    ★★★½

    Same vibes as Weapons, but instead of witchcraft this one deals with aliens.

32. 32
    Colony (2026)

    ★★★½

    This is how it feels like to have AI agents!

33. 33
    Geostorm (2017)

    ★★★
34. 34
    A Quiet Place: Day One (2024)

    ★★★
35. 35
    Noah (2014)

    ★★★
36. 36
    Cowboys & Aliens (2011)

    ★★★

    I like this most when it leans fully into its weird cowboy and sci-fi blend.

37. 37
    Godzilla Minus One (2023)

    ★★★

    There’s something elegant about watching a film in black and white.

38. 38
    The Last House (2026)

    ★★★

    Greta Lee and Wagner Moura in one film? Count me in!

39. 39
    The Tomorrow War (2021)

    ★★½
40. 40
    Greenland 2: Migration (2026)

    ★★½

    A dark, atmosphere driven disaster film that leans more on mood than spectacle.

41. 41
    The Devil's Mouth (2026)

    ★★½

    The Devil’s Mouth really reminds me of Deep Blue Sea (1999) because of its constant sense of thrill and danger, including how certain things play out.

42. 42
    Drive (2011)

    ★★

    I watched this after reading a trivia that this is the last film capturing the yellow LA streetlights before they were replaced by LED lights that emit white light.

43. 43
    War Machine (2026)

    ★★

    I appreciate the clean cinematography, real locations, and practical explosions because they give the action a grounded physical feel.

44. 44
    Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)

    ★

    The opening sequence is nice. It gives me that old school large scale war vibe, parang Rogue One climax type faceoff but with that classic apocalyptic feel.

45. 45
    The Core (2003)

    ½

    I never really felt the tension or urgency of the mission, which is a huge problem for a disaster movie like this.

46. 46
    The Happening (2008)
