This is a list of films with high frame rates. Only films with a native (without motion interpolation) shooting and projection frame rate of 48 or higher, for all or some of its scenes, are included. This is at least double the 24 frames per second (fps) standard used in Hollywood.[1] Several of these films also have versions which are converted and projected at 24 fps.
