Each astrological sign expresses itself and perceives the world in certain ways, which means each one will enjoy the many different genres of entertainment in particular ways. This series of articles will suggest an example movie from different genres for each astrological sign. The plot and characters exemplify the qualities each sign would enjoy. This article will be about the movies for Sagittarius.
Sagittarius
Sagittarius is the mutable fire sign of the Zodiac, so movies for this sign should include exotic locations, epic storytelling, beautiful cinematography, cultural diversity, and sarcastic humor. This sign loves a truly great adventure! Jupiter rules this sign and is all about the motto “go big or go home,” so movies that tell a sweeping story across time, the world, and outer space will appeal to them the most.
Quick synopsis from google.com: “A laugh out loud real life romantic comedy about Ravi Patel, an almost 30 year old Indian American who enters a love triangle between the woman of his dreams, and his parents.”

This comedy is also a documentary, showcasing the intersection of Indian and American culture, as Ravi tries to navigate being a first-born generation American with parents who moved to the United States from India. Their traditional values regarding arranged marriages presents a problem because he is in love with a very American young woman. Sagittarius will love the view of both cultures through the lens of Ravi’s struggle to make his parents happy and pursue his own happiness.
Drama
Forrest Gump (1994)
Quick synopsis from google.com: “Slow-witted Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks) has never thought of himself as disadvantaged, and thanks to his supportive mother (Sally Field), he leads anything but a restricted life. Whether dominating on the gridiron as a college football star, fighting in Vietnam or captaining a shrimp boat, Forrest inspires people with his childlike optimism. But one person Forrest cares about most may be the most difficult to save — his childhood love, the sweet but troubled Jenny (Robin Wright).”
Why Sagittarius Will Love It
The film covers several decades of experiences that crystallize certain times in American history that a Sagittarius will enjoy seeing. Seen through the lens of Forrest Gump, who reacts to the world around him with a consistent innocence that shines a light on each period of time, the unfolding of the American story gets told in a creative and insightful way. The story also contains numerous different scenes from within the US and outside it; another plus for a Sagittarius viewer.
Action
Gladiator (2000)
Quick synopsis from google.com: “Set in Roman times, the story of a once-powerful general forced to become a common gladiator. The emperor’s son is enraged when he is passed over as heir in favor of his father’s favorite general. He kills his father and arranges the murder of the general’s family, and the general is sold into slavery to be trained as a gladiator – but his subsequent popularity in the arena threatens the throne.”
Why Sagittarius Will Love It
A sweeping period piece with plenty of political intrigue. And, if there was ever a director with a “go big or go home” cinematic style, it would be Ridley Scott. Everything about the movie is “sumptuous,” whether showing scenes of battle or everyday life. The rise and fall of an Emperor, the fall of a general to rise as a gladiator, and the fate of an empire all have the massive Jupiter-like spectacle that a Sagittarius viewer will love.
Kids
Moana
Quick synopsis from google.com: “An adventurous teenager sails out on a daring mission to save her people. During her journey, Moana meets the once-mighty demigod Maui, who guides her in her quest to become a master way-finder. Together they sail across the open ocean on an action-packed voyage, encountering enormous monsters and impossible odds. Along the way, Moana fulfills the ancient quest of her ancestors and discovers the one thing she always sought: her own identity.”
Why Sagittarius Will Love It
A young woman sets out on a mission to save her home, challenging the beliefs of her leaders, and her father. The “chosen one” theme is strong, and certainly an aspect of storytelling that a Sagittarius will appreciate. Beautiful animation takes the viewer on a seafaring adventure that connects the heroine with a “down and out” demigod as they struggle to work together to return the heart he stole from a goddess, who is now poisoning the world instead of nourishing it.
Science Fiction
Star Trek (2009)
Quick synopsis from google.com: “Aboard the USS Enterprise, the most-sophisticated starship ever built, a novice crew embarks on its maiden voyage. Their path takes them on a collision course with Nero (Eric Bana), a Romulan commander whose mission of vengeance threatens all mankind. If humanity would survive, a rebellious young officer named James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and a coolly logical Vulcan named Spock (Zachary Quinto) must move beyond their rivalry and find a way to defeat Nero before it is too late.”
Why Sagittarius Will Love It
The basic concept of Star Trek, “to go where no one has gone before,” is a Sagittarius motto if there ever was one. This reboot reintroduced modern audiences to Captain Kirk, Spock, and the rest of the crew of the starship Enterprise, and it’s mission to explore deep space. Traveling to other worlds, encountering other alien races, and spreading the ideals of the Federation are everything a Sagittarius could want in a science fiction universe.
Mystery
Rising Sun (1993)
Quick synopsis from Google.com: “When a prostitute is found dead in a Los Angeles skyscraper occupied by a large Japanese corporation, detectives John Conner (Sean Connery) and Web Smith (Wesley Snipes) are called in to investigate. Although Conner has previous experience working in Japan, cultural differences make their progress difficult until a security disc showing the murder turns up. Close scrutiny proves the disc has been doctored, and the detectives realize they’re dealing with a cover-up as well.”
Why Sagittarius Will Love It
The blend of cultures, intersecting with the mystery plot, gives this film the right mix of diversity to keep a Sagittarius viewer engaged. All three of the principle characters are from different cultures, British, American, and Japanese. The high stakes game of corporate espionage will also keep a Sagittarius viewer watching until the very end, along with the sub-plot of a cross-cultural romance.
