Seven Years in Tibet

If you’re looking for adventure, it’s impossible for you to ignore this masterpiece. Directed by Becky Johnston, this movie is set in 1943 when an Austrian mountain climber,

played by Brad Pitt runs from that British internment camp in India and travels over the Himalayas just to escape it all. He arrives in Lhasa where he meets the

Dalai Lama and befriends him. The film takes you to scenic sites in Chile, Argentina, and Canada which is sure to make you itching to go there yourself.

Journey to the Center of the Earth

If you aren’t a Jules Verne fan as yet, you soon will be after seeing this movie. This adapted fantasy revolves around an ambitious science professor,

played by Brendan Fraser, who has come up with an unconventional hypothesis that makes him a joke in the academic community. That’s tough!

That is until he manages to turn his life around and publish the discoveries he made following his excursion to Iceland. Get ready to travel to the center of the earth, walk through underground terrariums, and meet dinosaurs and other exotic animals with this production.

Cast Away

As the entire human civilization undergoes social distancing to survive, we can feel the pain of Tom Hanks in this movie.

When the FedEx engineer is stranded on a deserted island with no other human in sight, he’s close to going insane. He tallies the day he’s spent and finds companionship in a volleyball that has floated to this island along with him.

All the while hoping against hope that things will improve and he’ll get back home. This movie is a must-watch in lockdown when you find yourself going insane from the lack of human interaction. If anything this will make you grateful for all you have for sure!

Life of Pi

Another similar movie you ought to watch is the Life of Pi. Shipwreck is devastating for those who lose their life and worse still for those who survive. Based on Yann Martel’s novel,

this movie focuses on how a young man, stranded on a boat navigates the waters of the Pacific Ocean trying to survive. His companion, a Bengal tiger!

The Lord of the Rings

If you’re going to watch Lord of the Rings, you might as well watch the entire trilogy. You can’t stop at one, we guarantee and if

you’re not a fan of Tolkien’s most famous writing, you soon will be. The world-building is unmatched and will take you to a whole new realm.

When Frodo takes on the task to get rid of the ring once and for all we’re not really sure what will happen, but we know that it’s an adventure like no other,

one you don’t want to miss. So, grab some popcorn and some food too. This is hours of adventure so prepare well.

The Treasure of the Sierra Madre

Two outlaws are on the run when they meet a veteran prospector with whom they then set out in search of gold in the Sierra Madre Mountains in Mexico.

Avatar
