I can see where you'd get that but I don't agree 100%.

[Schlosser85]

In No Way Out and Absolute Power, Gene Hackman's character is EXACTLY the same.

 

[nite-owl]

[Bim]

[TLH]

Taken and Ransom.

 

[DarKJediKnight]

Star Wars
Eragon

 

[Ipodman]

Bourne Ultimatum (The third one), and Wolverine Origins

 

[CJ]

The Dark Knight is like a bizarro Spider-Man 2.

Hero realizes that being a superhero sucks, and considers retiring.
He wants to be with the girl he loves, but can't, because of his superhero life. A new man shows up in his loved one's life, who wants to marry the girl he loves.

Only, TDK is different than Spider-Man 2, in that..

The hero doesn't win the heart of the girl he loves.

The hero fails to save the girl and she dies

 

[OctaviusINC]

And Spider-man 2 is like Superman 2.

 

[gwynplaine]

Dr Jeckyll and mr Hyde
The nutty professor.

 

[WormyT]

Dark City
The Matrix

Die Hard
Home Alone

 

[Changeling]

The Prestige
The Illusionist

 

[gwynplaine]

Reservoir Dogs/City on Fire.

District 13/Escape from NY.

Bourne Ultimatum (The third one), and Wolverine Origins

At first I thought only the one scene where it shows Bourne volunteering but I can see other similarities.

While i love both movies, i think The Others and The Sixth Sense have similar plots.

Kind of . They both have a similar feel and the twist but they still feel very different to me .

Die Hard
