Collider has published a ranked list of the seven best adventure movies released in the past decade, arguing that the genre has thrived despite its most celebrated entries dating back several decades. Writer Jake Hodges notes that "adventure" blends easily with other genres, citing classics like The Lord of the Rings and Terminator 2 as reference points, before highlighting how bigger budgets and improved technology have kept the genre alive in modern blockbusters.

The countdown includes Avengers: Endgame (2019) at number seven, praised for its ambitious scale despite thinner character work; Top Gun: Maverick (2022) at six, credited with reviving cinema-going after the Covid-19 pandemic; and Project Hail Mary (2026), starring Ryan Gosling and based on Andy Weir's novel, ranked fifth as the most recent addition. The full article continues with further entries in the top five, though the ranking's final positions are not included in the provided text.
