1. The Imitation Game - One of the must-watch. The story takes place around World War II, where Britain's top-secret Government Code gives a tough time competing in the darkest days of the war, trying to break the enigma code which ultimately leads to the war ending a few earlier than predicted.                                                                                                                   
2. The Trial of Chicago 7 - It's one of the best movies, I have seen recently, the narrative talks about the group of 7 Anti-Vitennames war protestors who were charged with crossing the lines of initiating riots in the city of Chicago in the year 1968 which led to city-wide protest. It very beautifully depicts the heat and agony between the police officials and the youth of the city.                                                                             
3.  Snowden -  Are you too constantly wondering if our data has been surveillance or the whole concept of data privacy is just a myth, then this is the movie for you. It talks about an NSA surveillance, where they have access to citizen's data and it's leaked to the public by one of its employees.                                                                                                       
4. 12 Years a Slave - Ever wondered about American- African history? This movie will give a clear glimpse of what events actually took in the 1800s. It beautifully and emotionally describes what a minority has to go through and what could be lost. It will leave you sobbing, trust me!                                                                                                            
5. The Wolf of Wall Street - Stock trading wouldn't have ever looked this intimidating. This one is about a New York City stockbroker who was involved in the corruption and fraud of the Wallstreet. The movie depicts the high and lows of his life by adding the ultimate glamour of such a life.                                                                                                    
6.  Lion - It is a beautiful adaption of an adopted child who in later years of his life goes on the journey of finding his birth mother and unrevealing the journey of how he was lost and ended up with his adopted parents.                                                                                                      
7.  Into the Wild - This movie is for you if you love the wild and nature. It narrated most charmingly and appealingly possible. It's about a guy who leaves all the luxury and the comforts of the world behind to go and explore Alaska and be as close to nature as one can be. The bus where Christopher McCandless spent his last 114 days was a national tourism site.                                                                                                          
8. The Pursuit of Happyness - No one can miss this, it is a perfect blend of emotions, ambitions and struggles and happiness. With Will Smith and Jaden Smith acting the father and son and their story of success and happiness.                                                                                          
9. Spotlight - Truly intimating, the story narratives about one of the oldest Bosten-based newspapers - ‘Spotlight’ and their release of the news where they expose the Roman Catholic Churches and have been abusing children in the name of religion.                                                     
10. Catch me if u can -  Looking for a series of cons, this one is the catch for you. It is based on the true story of Frank Abagnale, who at a very young age performed a series of cons with Pan American Airways and many more. It is a complete blend of thrill and excitement.
