Collider highlights films whose CGI remains convincing because it is carefully integrated with practical effects, real-world photography and subtle digital enhancements. The selections range from spectacle-heavy blockbusters to dramas where visual effects are intentionally difficult to notice.

– ‘The Social Network’ (2010): reportedly uses more than 1,000 VFX shots, including the Winklevoss twins effect, altered sets and added breath.
– ‘Inception’ (2010): combines practical construction and mechanical rigs with restrained digital work in scenes such as the folding Paris sequence.
– ‘Titanic’ (1997): is included as an example of enduring large-scale visual effects.
