A+++ post, OP!

lots of really good movies here. my favorites are The Thing <3, Sunshine & Children of Men.

and since i'm on a norwegian roll, i'm really curious about The Wave now - especially since you included it in the 'good ones' list despite the hot mess potential the plot alone suggests.

if u don't trust my taste

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an 80% "Certified Fresh" score based on 74 reviews

based on your list, i do trust it :) that's precisely why i was immediately interested

i tried to look for mostly positively ~received films. the stuff under the questionable categories tend to have mixed to bad reviews, but all worth watching if you're bored and want dumb entertainment!

the wave is excellent, I really liked it

I might have to watch it. As a tsunami survivor myself (2011 Tohoku quake), I have morbid curiosity about how movies treat them.
