Movies that feel likeThe Tourist (2010)

American tourist Frank meets mysterious British woman Elise on the train to Venice. Romance seems to bud, but there's more to her than meets the eye.

If you loved The Tourist, the closest films we have are Nikita (1990), No Escape (2015) and Atomic Blonde (2017). All three share The Tourist's kinetic and tense feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Ghajini (2008).

Terror strikes the underground train system in Moscow in the form of a flood from a collapsed tunnel. The film follows a diverse group of Moscow citizens who find themselves trapped in the city’s underground rail network, their train derailed and virtually crushed after an aging tunnel collapses. Amongst this band of survivors is softly spoken surgeon Andrey (Sergei Puskepalis), whose wife is having an affair with the conceited businessman Vlad (Anatoly Beliy). Fate brings these two men together on the same doomed train, but there is little time to resolve their differences, as the tunnel begins to quickly fill with water, forcing them to work together with the others and find a way back to the surface.
