Army of the Dead (2021)
Not much plot there
Okay I know the expectations with a zombie movie was already low, but was expecting some good plot-twists in the movie.
They had a lot of scope with the zombie queen and stuff but they didn't explore any of it.
Fight Club (1999)
100 words review
This is one of the top movies that has quickly become a modern classic. It's a well made movie, storyline is pretty interesting.
The story follows an insomniac office worker who finds a new friend, devil-may-care soap-maker. Life is more interesting with him, and they start living together. They even start a fight club, where people come and fight and get their frustrations out. Slowly the plot thickens and the protagonist realises new troubles building up.
Another great thing about this movie is that it's great for re-watch. There are many clue left here and there, for a curious viewer.

Based on a novel of same name, this movie tells the story of Oskar Schindler, who used to get cheap labor from the Jews for his factory. Starting as a opportunistic businessman, he transforms into a hero, when he becomes concerned about his workforce specially after witnessing their persecution.
This movie is a masterpiece of Steven Spielberg. He kept it in black-and-white format to make it more relatable of the era of the movie. Based on German Holocausts , this movie will surely bring tears in viewing but after a while, you will appreciate the story telling ability of the director.

100 words review
Based on a short story by legendary writer Stephen King, this movie tells a story about prison. How a simple man, who did his living got wrongfully convicted to prison and now he has to survive in that hell-hole.
Slowly, the protagonist makes friends and learns to survive through his belief and using his mind practically. Hope and perseverance made him survive through all the terror.
This movie is example of an excellent story with incomparable story telling skills. This movie had earned the title of most rated movie in IMDb and is on the watchlist of every movie fan.
Trivia
Stephen King has considered this to be one of his favorite film adaptations based on his own work.
Stephen King never cashed his $1,000 cheque for rights to the film. Several years after the movie came out, King got the cheque framed, and mailed it back to Frank Darabont with a note inscribed, "In case you ever need bail money. Love, Steve."
The film's initial gross of $18 million could not even cover the cost of its production. It did another $10 million in the wake of its Oscar nominations, but the film was still deemed to be a box-office failure.
Quotes
Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane.
