Mine is a bit niche. Male anti hero protagonist revenge movies. Usually takes place in england. Always has a heavy criminal element, a good bit of violence and the lead usually dies in the end. Recent favorites include “Bull” “Avengment” and “Villan”. Not sure if this specific type of movie is a genre or not but there’s plenty of them.
Was trying to figure out how to answer the question and you nailed it. Even had 2012 in mind. Armageddon is a favorite.
just watched that with my wife not long ago.
I completely forgot about the plot driven gravity on the asteroid and was rolling when they dukes of hazard’ed across the surface.
