What older movies made a good use of either side stepping special effects or have effects that somehow still hold up today? Why are they good movies?

    Matrix 1. Other than some CGI, it doesn’t have so much special effects as much as it has special camera tricks.

        I agree. Even when it was new and I went “wow look where the technology has gone!” I still felt that it was insufficient and would age. Honestly the movies are fantastic until they try to show giant orc armies and then it’s a bit MEH.
