Nervous Men and Bad Days

10 films, ranked on my own star ratings by Arwin Edward Bagaslao. Updated 2026-09-28.

My William H. Macy ranking from watched films: sweaty choices, stressed dads, weird little men, and the feeling that rent is due inside the plot. Ranked by stars first, then by rewatch pull, emotional clarity, performance impact, and how mu

1. 1
   Boogie Nights (1997)

   ★★★★½

   Sa una pa lang napaindak na agad ako dahil sa opening music na katunog ng TikTok song na Lil Boo Thang.

2. 2
   Room (2015)

   ★★★★½

   Their room feels so cramped. I was under the impression that they were under experiment or that the world was already apocalyptic.

3. 3
   Train Dreams (2025)

   ★★★★½

   Standout sa opening pa lang is yung choice of lens.

4. 4
   Pleasantville (1998)

   ★★★★½

   This as a clever film about waking up inside a reality that feels safe, controlled, and limited, then slowly realizing there is something more beyond it.

5. 5
   The Running Man (2025)

   ★★★★

   Right from the first few minutes, the problem of poverty is already evident.

6. 6
   Air Force One (1997)

   ★★★★

   Tense and heroic. Harrison Ford doing what he does best, carrying the movie with that commanding action hero presence.

7. 7
   Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024)

   ★★★½
8. 8
   Magnolia (1999)

   ★★

   High energy prologue agad by PTA. Ramdam mo na from the start na chaotic, ambitious, at very ensemble driven ito.

9. 9
   Fargo (1996)

   ★★

   It is nice to see William H. Macy taking a lead role.

10. 10
    Welcome to Collinwood (2002)

    ★★

    A light and funny heist movie where almost everything that can go wrong eventually does.
