Iā€™m looking to create a watchlist of chess movies. Any recommendations?

KeSetoKaiba

Searching For Bobby Fischer

(That's the first chess movie I can recall watching and is a good one)

Life of a King (2013) is worth a watch. Based on a real-life story.

The Queen's Gambit is a 7 episode TV miniseries, rather than a movie, but it's very good.

There's also Computer Chess (2013) - A 1980s-set story centered around a man vs. machine chess tournament.
