• Release Date- February 8, 2019
• Cast- Liam Neeson, Laura Dern, Emmy Rossum, Tom Bateman, Julia Jones, Tom Jackson
• IMDb/ Rotten Tomatoes- 6.2/68%

You will like Cold Pursuit if you adore Liam Neeson and his "I'll find you and I'll kill you" persona. The main character of this film is Liam Neeson's character, Nels Coxman, a regular snowplow driver whose life is dramatically flipped upside down when his beloved kid passes away inexplicably. Nels decides to take things into his own hands and becomes a cold-blooded vigilante seeking for the individuals who had destroyed his world when the authorities are unable to provide the desired outcomes or bring the offenders to justice.

• IMDb/ Rotten Tomatoes- 6.5/92%

Movies about treasure hunts and wars are two different genres, but what if I told you there was one that flawlessly combines the two? You should see Da 5 Bloods if you don't believe me. The plot of this film centers on five Vietnam veterans who travel back to the country years later to retrieve the remains of their squadron commander, who was killed in action, as well as a sizable gold cache that he helped his colleagues conceal.

• Cast- Robert Pattinson, Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, Andy Serkis, Barry Keoghan, John Turturro
• IMDb/ Rotten Tomatoes- 7.8/ 85%

This film, in my view, is among the greatest Batman films ever produced. Robert Pattinson has done a fantastic job as the Caped Crusader, living up to the heritage of the greatest Batman performers ever. The story of this film centers on a much younger Batman, who was influenced by the comic book series Batman Year One. Batman may be seen thwarting the Riddler's cunning schemes in an effort to keep Gotham safe. This film is a true cinematic delight, and I heartily endorse it.

5. (2014) John Wick

• Cast- Keanu Reeves, Ian McShane, Lance Reddick, Bridget Moynahan, John Leguizamo, Alfie Allen, Michael Nyqvist
• IMDb/ Rotten Tomatoes- 7.4/86%

One of the greatest movie franchises ever created, in my opinion, is The John Wick film series. The death of John Wick's (Keanu Reeves) wife marks the start of John Wick. She gave John a dog just before she passed away. Just as John and the puppy were beginning to get along, several robbers stormed into his home and murdered the dog in an attempt to take John's automobile. They are unaware that John is a former hitman with a high mortality rate who goes crazy over those who killed his dog.
