- Hot Fuzz (2007) Wright's shining opus transposes the excess of '90s action movies into the quaint small-town intrigue of a BBC mystery series (the filmmaker colloquially refers to it as "Michael Bay's Midsomer Murders").
- Shaun of the Dead (2004) Wright's first theatrical feature Shaun of the Dead refines the strengths of Spaced, establishing his unique directorial style that's prevalent in every subsequent movie.
- Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (2010) The English filmmaker's first work across the pond — and an adaptation of the Canadian graphic novel series by Bryan Lee O'Malley — mashes up more genres in one movie than most directors dare in their entire careers.
- The World's End (2013) Much of Wright's work focuses on immature, unserious men as they sort out their relationships and save the world. In the third and final installment in the so-called Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy, the filmmaker intentionally interrogates the emotional complexity of his favorite character archetype.
