Line 83:
* ''[[Forrest Gump]]'' is ''[[Being There]]'' meets ''[[Zelig]]'', with a bit of [[Lifetime Movie of the Week]] thrown in.
* ''[[Four Lions]]'': ''Paradise Now'' meets ''[[The Three Stooges]]''.
* ''[[Frozen (film)|Frozen]]'' is essentially ''[[Open Water]]'', and ''Alive'' on a ''chairlift''.
* ''[[Galaxy Quest]]'' is ''[[¡Three Amigos!|Three Amigos]]'' meets ''[[Star Trek]]''.
* ''[[Gandhi at the Bat]]'' is ''The Pride Of The Yankees'' meets ''Gandhi'', with maybe a pinch of ''[[Rookie of the Year]]''.
Line 185:
* ''[[A Very Long Engagement]]'' was described by one Amazon.com viewer as ''[[Amelie]]'' meets ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'', which is pretty accurate, as it has some of the quirkiness of the former (and the same star and director), while also having the mystery element and [[War Is Hell|horrific battle scenes]] of the latter.
* ''[[Wanted]]'' is ''[[The Matrix]]'' meets ''[[Fight Club]]''.
* ''[[Warm Bodies (film)|Warm Bodies]]'' (2013) is ''[[Romeo and Juliet]]'' meets ''[[Night of the Living Dead]]''
* ''[[Wild Zero]]'' is ''[[Night of the Living Dead]]'' meets [[The Power of Rock]].
* ''Wolfhound'' has been described as "''[[Conan the Barbarian]]'' meets ''[[The Lord of the Rings (film)|The Lord of the Rings]]''", which is essentially a [[Reviewer Stock Phrases|blurb-friendly way]] of saying "is an heroic fantasy film".
