A rainy night alone and a great film is one of life's underrated pleasures, these are built for exactly that mood. Action with substance, films where the spectacle serves the story rather than replacing it. From the 2010s, arguably the most diverse and globally rich decade in film history. Genuinely funny, not just mildly amusing, these are the ones that catch you off guard.

Good action comedy that actually works is rarer than it looks. Every pick here was chosen for alone on a rainy night - Specifically from the 2010s - no awkward silences, no forced moments. If the first one doesn't hit your frequency, keep going. The right one is on this list.
Action that earns its runtime is rarer than the genre suggests. A rainy night alone is one of the few genuinely good reasons to watch something properly. The 2010s produced more quietly excellent films than the decade gets credit for. These are some of them. More lists by genre, mood, and occasion at Moviepiq.
