10. ‘Easter Sunday’ (2022)

This ensemble comedy centers on a Filipino American family’s Easter gathering, where a stand-up comic returns home and juggles family expectations, personal career choices, and a tangle of side problems over one packed day. Jo Koy stars as Joe Valencia, with Tia Carrere and Lydia Gaston as relatives who anchor the family dynamic, and Brandon Wardell as Joe’s son. Jay Chandrasekhar directed; the screenplay is by Kate Angelo and Ken Cheng, drawing on Koy’s material.

Set largely in Daly City, the film highlights family traditions, church, and a lively party that pulls in cousins and longtime friends.

Sandra Bullock returns as Gracie, with Regina King as Agent Sam Fuller, William Shatner as Stan Fields, and Heather Burns as Cheryl. John Pasquin directed from a screenplay by Marc Lawrence.

The story shifts the setting from a pageant backdrop to a publicity tour-turned-rescue mission, using Vegas landmarks as staging for investigations and stunts. The supporting ensemble includes Diedrich Bader as stylist Joel and Treat Williams as a senior FBI official, with Warner Bros. distributing the production.

8. ‘Zombieland’ (2009)

This horror-comedy tracks four survivors navigating a zombie-ridden America, following a rules-obsessed college student who teams up with a tough drifter and two resourceful sisters. Jesse Eisenberg plays Columbus, Woody Harrelson is Tallahassee, Emma Stone is Wichita, and Abigail Breslin is Little Rock. Ruben Fleischer directed from a screenplay by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.

Shot across multiple states with a mix of practical gags and digital effects, the film balances set-piece action with character-based humor. The cast includes a memorable cameo by Bill Murray as himself, and the script’s “rules” device provides both narration and recurring visual gags that frame the group’s survival tactics.

7. ‘Django Unchained’ (2012)

Quentin Tarantino writes and directs this revenge-western about a freed man who partners with a bounty hunter to rescue his wife from a ruthless plantation owner. Jamie Foxx stars as Django, Christoph Waltz as Dr. King Schultz, Leonardo DiCaprio as Calvin Candie, Kerry Washington as Broomhilda, and Samuel L. Jackson as Stephen. The production features Tarantino’s signature dialogue-driven confrontations alongside genre shootouts.

The film was produced by A Band Apart and The Weinstein Company, with cinematography by Robert Richardson and a soundtrack that blends Ennio Morricone cues with modern tracks. Its structure follows a series of bounties that culminate at Candie’s plantation, where negotiations and betrayals set up the final confrontation.

6. ‘Kung Fu Panda 4’ (2024)

DreamWorks Animation’s latest chapter finds Po preparing to transition into spiritual leadership while searching for a new Dragon Warrior, teaming up with street-smart fox Zhen to stop a shape-shifting sorceress known as the Chameleon. Jack Black returns as the voice of Po, joined by Awkwafina as Zhen, Viola Davis as the Chameleon, Dustin Hoffman as Master Shifu, James Hong as Mr. Ping, and Bryan Cranston as Li Shan. Mike Mitchell directed, with Stephanie Ma Stine as co-director.

The screenplay credits include franchise veterans alongside new writers, and the film blends new locales with returning faces from the Valley of Peace. Martial-arts choreography is stylized through animation design, with visual-effects teams orchestrating large-scale transformations tied to the Chameleon’s abilities.

5. ’21 Jump Street’ (2012)

This action-comedy reboot follows rookie cops Schmidt and Jenko, sent undercover at a high school to stop a designer drug. Jonah Hill plays Schmidt and Channing Tatum plays Jenko, with Brie Larson as Molly, Dave Franco as Eric, and Ice Cube as Captain Dickson. Phil Lord and Christopher Miller directed; the screenplay is by Michael Bacall, from a story by Bacall and Jonah Hill, based on the television series ’21 Jump Street’.

The film is produced by Columbia Pictures, Relativity Media, and Original Film, with Rob Riggle and DeRay Davis among the supporting cast. Its high-school setting becomes the operational front for the revived Jump Street program, and the script weaves buddy-cop staples—wire buys, pin-and-busts, and blown covers—into campus life.

4. ‘Miss Congeniality’ (2000)

This undercover comedy casts Sandra Bullock as FBI agent Gracie Hart, who infiltrates the Miss United States pageant to foil a bombing threat. Michael Caine co-stars as pageant consultant Victor Melling, with Benjamin Bratt as Agent Eric Matthews, Candice Bergen as pageant director Kathy Morningside, and William Shatner as host Stan Fields. Donald Petrie directed, from a screenplay by Marc Lawrence, Katie Ford, and Caryn Lucas.

The film pairs procedural beats with pageant rehearsals and contestant camaraderie, using the competition as the operation’s cover. It was produced by Castle Rock Entertainment and Warner Bros., and its ensemble also features Heather Burns as Cheryl Frasier and Ernie Hudson as the FBI’s local supervisor.

Writer-director Damien Leone continues his slasher saga with Art the Clown returning to terrorize Miles County during the Christmas season. David Howard Thornton is back as Art, with Lauren LaVera reprising Sienna Shaw and Samantha Scaffidi returning as Victoria Heyes; the film follows the fallout from the events of ‘Terrifier 2’ as new victims cross paths with the series’ signature killer.

Leone again oversees special-effects makeup, a hallmark of the franchise, while the story deepens Sienna’s arc and the mythology surrounding Art’s seemingly supernatural endurance. The production brings holiday imagery into the series’ brutal aesthetic, setting its set-pieces against wintertime locations and festive decor.

2. ‘The Mummy Returns’ (2001)

The sequel reunites Rick and Evelyn—now parents to young Alex—as they race to stop the resurrection of the Scorpion King and the release of the Army of Anubis. Brendan Fraser, Rachel Weisz, John Hannah, Arnold Vosloo, and Oded Fehr return, joined by Freddie Boath as Alex, Dwayne Johnson as the Scorpion King, and Patricia Velasquez as Meela/Anck-su-namun. Stephen Sommers again serves as writer-director, expanding the mythology with artifacts like the Bracelet of Anubis and globe-trotting set pieces.

Backed by Universal and Alphaville, the film’s action hinges on family stakes and ancient prophecies, with visual effects teams pushing large creature and army simulations. Alan Silvestri composed the score, carrying forward the franchise’s sweeping musical identity from the first film.

1. ‘The Mummy’ (1999)

Universal’s modern revival of its classic monster myth follows adventurer Rick O’Connell leading a motley crew to the lost city of Hamunaptra, where they accidentally awaken the cursed priest Imhotep.

Stephen Sommers directed and wrote the film, blending pulp adventure and supernatural horror with large-scale practical and digital effects.

Produced by Universal Pictures and Alphaville, the movie launched a new franchise for the studio and cemented Fraser and Weisz as a beloved action–adventure duo. The supporting ensemble includes Kevin J. O’Connor as the opportunistic Beni Gabor and Patricia Velasquez as Anck-su-namun, whose forbidden romance with Imhotep drives the story’s central curse.
