Best Adventure Movies of the 2010s

There is an old saying: You cannot be a hero if you think about the end. Many of the best adventure movies embody this philosophy. Adventure movies, which consist of events that occur outside of daily life, take us to completely different worlds and create both excitement and curiosity. Action and adventure are so intertwined that it is very difficult to distinguish them from each other.

Adventure movies are generally the ones whose endings you can guess but aren't sure about. But in some of the best adventure movies, you can't even guess what's going to happen in the next scene, let alone the end of the movie. As in every movie genre, the factor that determines the basic characteristics of adventure movies is who the director is.

Many adventure movies are released every year, and when we consider a broader period, it is possible to see many masterpieces coming together in ten-year periods. The 2010s stand out as a decade when interest in cinema peaked. The best adventure films of the 2010s seem to have served as the cornerstone of this interest. Some of the adventure movies released in the 2010s surpassed one billion dollars in box office revenues and revitalized the industry.

When it came time to choose the best adventure movies of the 2010s, I focused on movies that were released between 2010 and 2019. I saw that there were very successful productions, including some that proved themselves at the Academy Award Ceremony. I've selected the best, resulting in a list of exceptional productions. If you're wondering what the best adventure movies of the 2010s are, here they are.
