Top 10 Movies With Multiple Major Storylines Part 2

Top 10 Movies With Multiple Major Storylines Part 2

As promised, here is part 2 of the best movies with ensemble cast and multiple major storylines.

These movies, however, make us all realize that no matter how much we hate other, we can never get away with the fact that everyone is connected to everyone one way or another.

10. Sin City



Director:

Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez

About the movie:

An adaptation of Frank Miller’s stories based in a morally bankrupt metropolis.

For comic fans, it is good news that the movie, more or less, stayed faithful to the comics. You will also not be disappointed on the special effects. One of the few comic novel adaptation you can actually like.



9. Rendition



Director:

Gavin Hood

About the movie:

After a terrorist bombing kills an American envoy in a foreign country, an investigation leads to an Egyptian who has been living in the United States for years and who is married to an American.

It bombed in the box office but it did produce one of the Hollywood’s most talked about love story – Jake Gyllanhaal and Reese Witherspoon.



8. I m Not There



Director:

Todd Haynes

About the movie:


Six individuals represent the spirit of Bob Dylan in various stages of his career and personal life.

Not quite as cool as Bob Dylan but it did capture a part of his spirit.



7. Little Children



Director:

Todd Field

About the movie:

Little Children centers on a group of young marrieds, whose lives intersect on the playgrounds, town pools and streets of their small community in surprising and potentially dangerous ways.

This really deserves more attention in the box office.



6. Syriana



Director:

Stephen Gaghan

About the movie:

Shout out to George Cloony.

A missile disappears in Iran, but the CIA has other problems:
*the heir to an Emirate gives an oil contract to China, cutting out a US company that promptly fires its immigrant workers and merges with a small firm that has landed a Kazakhstani oil contract
*the Department of Justice suspects bribery, and the oil company’s law firm finds a scapegoat. The CIA also needs one when its plot to kill the Emir-apparent fails. Agent Bob Barnes, the fall guy, sorts out the double cross.
*an American economist parlays the death of his son into a contract to advise the sheik the CIA wants dead.
*the jobless Pakistanis join a fundamentalist group.
All roads start and end in the oil fields.
