The team at Preply delivers a fun study guide for English language learners. They created a list of the simplest and most challenging films for English language learners to watch for some practice. They created a scoring system for the highest-grossing films based on the number of words per minute and the complexity of their vocabulary. The films with the highest scores were Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Maleficent, and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. As for the most difficult films, The Wandering Earth, Oppenheimer, and Barbie had high word counts and challenging vocabulary. The team also determined that fantasy and adventure films with quest or romance storylines score the best. They also specifically picked out which films have subtitles that are difficult to follow. The film Finding Dory, which may be surprising since it’s a children’s movie, but the chatterbox fish in the starring role delivers a lot of dialogue to keep up with.
