Gerard Butler has given us some amazing movies across genres, be it a fantasy war film like 300, or gangster drama like Rock N Rolla, or action flicks like Law Abiding Citizen and the Has Fallen franchise, the audience knows they are in for a ride with his movies. Last year, the actor had a successful run with the live-action remake of How To Train Your Dragon, where he brought Hiccup’s father Stoick to life, and with his return to the iconic Den of Thieves franchise.
Earlier this year, he came out with another sequel, Ric Roman Waugh’s Greenland 2: Migration, which did not pull audiences to theaters, but has become a streaming favorite. The movie first shone on PVOD platforms, garnering a lot of views, and then moved on to find a permanent spot on various streaming charts. The sequel to 2020’s hit proves a worthy successor of the original film, taking forward the story and boldly touching on the themes of migration, family, and environmental and moral collapse.
And it seems like the movie is resonating with a wide audience as Greenland 2: Migration has been on streaming charts for over 120 days, as per FlixPatrol. On platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV Store, the film has completed over 120 days, while it recently arrived on HBO Max, where it is at the top of domestic charts.
Collider Exclusive · Sci-Fi Survival Quiz Which Sci-Fi World Would You Survive? The Matrix · Mad Max · Blade Runner · Dune · Star Wars
Five universes. Five completely different ways the future went wrong — or sideways, or up in flames. Only one of them is the world your instincts were built for. Eight questions will figure out which dystopia, galaxy, or desert wasteland you’d actually make it out of alive.
💊The Matrix
🔥Mad Max
🌧️Blade Runner
🏜️Dune
🚀Star Wars
01
You sense something is deeply wrong with the world around you. What do you do? The first instinct is often the truest one.
02
In a world of scarcity, what resource do you guard most fiercely? What we protect reveals what we believe survival actually requires.
03
What kind of threat keeps you up at night? Fear is useful data — if you’re honest about what you’re actually afraid of.
04
How do you deal with authority you don’t trust? Every dystopia has a power structure. Your approach to it determines everything.
05
Which environment could you actually endure long-term? Survival isn’t just tactical — it’s physical, psychological, and very much about where you are.
06
Who do you want in your corner when things fall apart? The company you keep is the clearest signal of who you actually are.
07
Where do you draw the line — if you draw one at all? Every survivor eventually faces a moment that tests what they’re actually made of.
08
What would actually make survival worth it? Staying alive is one thing. Having a reason to is another.
Your Fate Has Been Calculated You’d Survive In…
Your answers point to the world your instincts were built for. This is the universe your temperament, your survival instincts, and your particular brand of stubbornness were made for.
The Resistance, Zion
The Matrix
You took the red pill a long time ago — probably before anyone offered it to you. You’re a systems thinker who can’t help but notice the seams in things.
You’re drawn to understanding how the system works before figuring out how to break it.
You’d find the Resistance, or it would find you — your instinct for spotting constructed realities is the machines’ worst nightmare.
You function best when you have access to information and the freedom to act on it.
The Matrix built an airtight prison. You’d be the one probing the walls for the door.
The Wasteland
Mad Max
The wasteland doesn’t reward the clever or the well-connected — it rewards those who are hard to kill and harder to break. That’s you.
You don’t need comfort, community, or a cause larger than the next horizon.
You need a vehicle, a clear threat, and enough fuel to outrun it — and you’re good at all three.
You are unsentimental enough to survive that world, and decent enough — just barely — to be something more than another raider.
In the wasteland, that distinction is everything.
Los Angeles, 2049
Blade Runner
You’d survive here because you know how to exist in moral grey areas without losing yourself completely.
You read people accurately, keep your circle small, and ask the questions others prefer not to answer.
In a city where humanity is a legal designation rather than a feeling, you hold onto something that keeps you functional.
You’re not a hero. But you’re not lost, either.
In Blade Runner’s world, that distinction is everything.
Arrakis
Dune
Arrakis is the most hostile environment in the known universe — and you are precisely the kind of person it rewards.
Patience, discipline, and political awareness are your core strengths — and on Arrakis, they’re survival tools.
You understand that the long game matters more than any single victory.
Others come to Dune and are consumed by it. You’d learn its logic and earn its respect.
In time, you wouldn’t just survive Arrakis — you’d begin to reshape it.
A Galaxy Far, Far Away
Star Wars
The galaxy far, far away is vast, loud, and in a constant state of violent political upheaval — and you wouldn’t have it any other way.
You find meaning in being part of something larger than yourself — a cause, a crew, a rebellion.
You’d gravitate toward the Rebellion, or the fringes, or whatever pocket of the galaxy still believes the Empire’s grip can be broken.
You fight — not because you have to, but because standing aside isn’t something you’re capable of.
In Star Wars, that willingness is what makes all the difference.
What’s ‘Greenland 2: Migration’ About?
Set five years after the events of the original movie we follow the surviving Garrity family, who are now leaving the safety of the Greenland bunker to embark on a perilous journey across the frozen wasteland to find a new home. The feature sadly did not see similar box office success as its predecessor and grossed only $44.8 million worldwide, half of its $90 million budget.
It further failed to impress theatergoers, while critics gave it a 49% Rotten Tomatoes score, but the audience was more forgiving with a 66% rating. But these aren’t the only markers of a successful film nowadays, given that fans’ love is catapulting the movie towards streaming success. It proves to be a good watch when seen purely as a man’s efforts to keep his family safe in a post-apocalyptic world. The core chemistry between Butler, Morena Baccarin, and Roman Griffin Davis, who took over the role of their son, Nathan, is the heart of the feature.
You can check out Greenland 2: Migration on Prime Video and HBO Max. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
