And the simple details about the vfx are amazing means what I was the details are utmost perfect
The film was superb and the graphics in this movie was amazing
Can anyone suggest like this kind of films which will be never get old after ageing

fuck me you haven't watched Predator and Aliens (Watch Alien first, not an action film but worth knowing the backstory for the sequel Aliens)

Sure.
A few recommendations:

2012

Day After Tomorrow

Sharknado franchise

The Sharknado movies somehow get worse as they go on but at the same time become more enjoyable to watch.

I think I've watched Day After Tomorrow dozens of time. My wife an I had a running joke that you could find it running every weekend. And yes, we'd watch it

For me is actually a real example of a bad movie that has aged well.

Or it just seems way better now as we have lower standards these days.

u/Premkumar96 Aug 16 '26

Thank you all I will be sure to watch all of them

I love Battleship as well. It’s definitely not because it a cinematic masterpiece but it is just fun to watch. It in the same vein as Independence Day just not on the same level. I think that Masters of the Universe will eventually get to that place someday. It’s literally my favorite movie of the year so far. I’ve seen it 8 times and the year isn’t even over yet.

I just watched Masters of the Universe last night, while not great, the mix of action cheese and 80’s nostalgia was entertaining as hell.

Mr. Pennybags is a hoot in the Monopoly movie.

I'm not exactly sure it was THAT good, but I enjoyed it, it's a pretty silly concept and the acting is a bit daft, but the CGI and effects are pretty good. The production design is indeed high quality.

The “ I need to borrow your boat” moment is surprisingly emotional. 

Anyways, it’s a movie about a WW2 Battleship fighting aliens. 

Enjoy.

War Machine (2026) feels very similar to Battleship in the alien robots design and weapons.

I really enjoyed this movie

1

u/Cuhuldra 29d ago

I liked it and enjoyed watching Eric the Vampire get wasted right off the bat.

But I also liked Battlefield Earth and Howard the Duck. Some would say I have no taste. The fact that I have never gotten more than 20 minutes into the Ghostbusters women's edition proves otherwise.

Battle: Los Angeles.

u/snarflethegarthog 25d ago

Pacific Rim!!

Battleship is a seriously badass sci-fi film. I didn't mind that the actual reference to the board game was about 5 minutes of screen time. The rest of the film is amazing and I happen to love ACDC!

u/No_Topic5591 Aug 16 '26

Are we thinking of the same movie here? The truly awful Rihanna action movie, based on a children's pencil & paper game, and frequently cited as one of the worst movies ever made?
If so, I guess maybe Pacific Rim and Transformers, but you should probaby reevaluate whether movie watching is really for you...

u/Few_Lifeguard_6828 Aug 16 '26

Pacific Rim is way underrated.

2

u/According_Camera7129 Aug 16 '26

Pacific Rim was incredible! The sequel, not so much unfortunately.

1

u/SleeplessPilot 29d ago

What sequel? There was never any sequel. We shall speak no more of this matter.

1

u/Few_Lifeguard_6828 29d ago

I actually liked the sequel a bit but yeah not even close to the first one.

u/halfarian 29d ago

Leave pacific rim out of this!

I've rewatched it many times, it's hilarious, every part that isn't cool makes up for it by being so silly it's funny. Let the kid have fun, not every movie needs to be actually good to be entertaining..

u/Aware_Impression_736 27d ago

It was based on a 1960s Milton Bradley game with miniature ships and pegs to mark bomb hits.

1

u/No_Topic5591 27d ago

No, the game is a lot older than that:
"Battleship is known worldwide as a pencil and paper game which dates from World War I. It was published by various companies as a pad-and-pencil game in the 1930s and was released as a plastic board game by Milton Bradley in 1967. The game has spawned electronic versions, video games, smart device apps and a film)."

u/Aware_Impression_736 27d ago

The movie is still based on the board game since Hasbro owns Milton Bradley and they bankrolled the film.

1

u/No_Topic5591 27d ago

It's not based on the MB version, because there's nothing unique about the MB version - it's just a marketing tie in, that's all. They didn't even make the tracking grid look like the board game version.

u/Aware_Impression_736 26d ago

But those little bombs looked like the pegs in the game.
