10. ‘Shrek 2’ (2004)

After their swamp-side wedding, Shrek and Fiona travel to Far Far Away to meet her parents, King Harold and Queen Lillian, where the Fairy Godmother and Prince Charming plot to separate the couple. Mike Myers voices Shrek, Cameron Diaz is Princess Fiona, Eddie Murphy plays Donkey, and Antonio Banderas debuts as Puss in Boots, with Julie Andrews and John Cleese as the royal in-laws and Jennifer Saunders as the Fairy Godmother.

Directed by Andrew Adamson, Kelly Asbury, and Conrad Vernon, the film’s screenplay is credited to J. David Stem, David N. Weiss, Peter Steinkellner, and others, building on William Steig’s characters from the original film’s source. The production combines fairy-tale pastiche with character-driven comedy and set-piece sequences like the “I Need a Hero” rescue, expanding the series’ world and ensemble.

9. ‘Shrek’ (2001)

Ogre loner Shrek strikes a deal with Lord Farquaad: rescue Princess Fiona and he can reclaim his swamp from banished fairy-tale creatures. Mike Myers leads the voice cast as Shrek, with Cameron Diaz as Fiona, Eddie Murphy as Donkey, and John Lithgow as Farquaad, as the quest bends classic fairy-tale beats into a buddy-adventure road story.

Directed by Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jenson from a screenplay by Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio, Joe Stillman, and Roger S. H. Schulman, the film adapts William Steig’s picture book. Its CG character animation, pop-aware humor, and soundtrack choices helped redefine mainstream animation in the early 2000s and launched a multi-film franchise.

8. ‘Unknown Number: The High School Catfish’ (2025)

Set around a suburban campus, the film reconstructs a catfishing scheme that spirals into sustained harassment, tracking how pseudonymous accounts, spoofed calls, and message logs intersect with school policies and local statutes. The story follows the sequence of events through interviews, device audits, and a day-by-day timeline that maps posts, takedowns, and administrative actions.

Structured as a docudrama, it blends dramatized scenes with digital-forensic elements such as metadata callouts and reconstructed chats. The production focuses on procedures—evidence preservation, warrants, and custodial interviews—to show how investigators link online personas to real-world identities without compromising student privacy obligations.

7. ’28 Years Later’ (2025)

Decades after the initial outbreak, survivors navigate cordoned zones and intermittent flare-ups while a small team undertakes a high-risk mission tied to a potential breakthrough. The plot’s route planning, curfews, and supply constraints shape the action, with quarantines and surveillance corridors driving when and where characters can move.

Reuniting the franchise’s original creative DNA, the production advances the series’ timeline with new locations, enclaves, and protocols for containment and testing. The narrative emphasizes decision points—when to breach a perimeter, when to evacuate, and how to weigh community safety against the chance of a systemic cure.

6. ‘Moving On’ (2022)

Two estranged friends reconnect at a funeral and resolve to confront the man responsible for a past assault, a plan that forces them to revisit who they were and who they’ve become. Jane Fonda plays Claire and Lily Tomlin is Evelyn, with Malcolm McDowell as Howard and Richard Roundtree as Ralph, anchoring a character piece that alternates between awkward reunions and sharply written confrontations.

Written and directed by Paul Weitz, the film keeps the focus on dialogue and performance, using compact interiors and short, tense scenes to trace how old wounds shape present decisions. Its supporting ensemble rounds out the social and family dynamics around the memorial weekend, setting up choices that test loyalties and personal resolve.

5. ‘Terror Comes Knocking: The Marcela Borges Story’ (2025)

This true-crime feature retraces the case surrounding Marcela Borges through police filings, court records, and interviews with family and investigators. The film lays out a chronology of key calls, sightings, and evidence submissions, organizing the investigation into canvassing phases, lab requests, and lead triage.

Sections detail the chain-of-custody for recovered items, charging decisions, and pretrial motions that define what the jury will see. Victim-advocacy segments explain the practical supports mobilized for relatives—housing, counseling, and legal navigation—while legal analysts translate statutory language and procedural steps for general audiences.

4. ‘aka Charlie Sheen’ (2025–present)

Season 1 surveys Charlie Sheen’s professional arc, framing episodes around career inflection points—casting choices, network transitions, and high-visibility setbacks—and the business mechanics behind them. Interviews and archival footage provide context on project development, showrunning structures, and how production calendars intersected with public controversies.

Each episode parses the industry’s moving parts, from contract clauses and syndication economics to audience measurement and marketing pivots. The series uses production bibles, call sheets, and promo materials to show how creative decisions and reputation management affected opportunities at each stage.

3. ‘The Wrong Paris’ (2025)

A traveler aiming for a European getaway arrives in an American town with the same name and is mistaken for someone tied to a long-running local scheme. The setup hinges on a misdirected parcel, conflicting IDs, and municipal records that don’t match, drawing the protagonist into a network of small-town favors and quiet threats.

The investigation unfolds through paper trails—property filings, PO box logs, and bank slips—punctuated by stakeouts and courthouse visits that reveal who’s been moving money and why. As the details stack up, the case pivots on a choice between exposing the entire operation or cutting a narrowly tailored deal that keeps certain names out of the file.

2. ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ (2025)

An idol group balances comeback promotions with clandestine demon-hunting duties, folding monster encounters into high-energy stagecraft. Choreography doubles as formation tactics, and performance gear hides talismans, scanners, and signal rigs, letting the team handle threats without blowing their public cover.

Developed as an animated feature, the production fuses contemporary idol culture with urban-fantasy world-building, tracking rehearsal schedules, agency rules, and security logistics alongside supernatural set pieces. The plot structure alternates between music-industry milestones—comeback stages, fansigns, and midnight drops—and missions that test teamwork and secrecy.

1. ‘Ice Road: Vengeance’ (2025)

A veteran driver signs onto a high-risk haul after a deadly ambush, steering a convoy across unstable ice under sabotage and tightening weather windows. Route planning, load limits, and chain changes drive the moment-to-moment stakes as the team threads thawing crossings toward a remote site.

As the adversaries probe dispatch data and checkpoint routines, the operation becomes a contest of logistics and experience. The film’s set pieces revolve around shifting ice integrity, rescue protocols, and hard calls about when to proceed, when to circle back, and how to keep the cargo—and everyone involved—intact.
