What’s yours?

Currently watching Se7en which is one of the best I’ve seen, as for best not sure.

I’ll go for Alien.

One is tricky, I’ll opt for Jaws.

Just watched Up for the first time. First 10 mins and last 10 mins are exceptionally moving, but the rest of the film is only okay (the dogs are especially cool) IMO. It’s making me question some of my values and priorities which has to be a good thing. So all in all, a v good film but not the best … don’t know what is TBF.

Do you mean “film I have enjoyed the most” or “the film I think is technically the best”?

Either way, I couldn’t narrow it down to just one, but some suggestions may be:

Alien
Shawshank Redemption
Seven
Apocalypse Now
Platoon
Gladiator

Platoon, followed by point break, then the last 2 Batman films…. 🙂

Obvious but I really like Godfather Part II.

Please no-one say No Country For Old Men. 😐

You know what I’m going to go with one of my favourites and possibly still my favourite although I’m not sure it still is but anyway.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

Such great characters, beautifully shot, fantastic sets and a great plot.

Hard one…in recent memory, “best” was There Will Be Blood
All time favourites are The Princess Bride (even though, technically, it lacks a lot. It’s more a sentimental favourite) and Charlie and The Chocolate Factory.

It’s a close one between Shawshank and tonight’s viewing which was Django Unchained. Gladiator in third.

Blade Runner is close, but I think the best ‘film’ (inverted commas most definitely needed here*) I have ever seen is Moulin Rouge.

*by which I mean the most truly film-like film.

Recently: Tyrannosaur,
Not so recently: There will be blood,

I didn’t ‘enjoy’ either but found both to be moving and well acted. If we’re going for enjoyment then its ‘The Lion King’ & all Disney since has been crap.

Shawshank Redemption by a country mile – effortless from start to end and utterly captivating. Always amazes me that it was written by the same man that brought us The Shining, Carrie, Christine, It…

Some Like It Hot

Probably Pulp Fiction but maybe North by North West

The original Matrix was superb. I grew up with the original Star Wars movies, so I guess these have had the most lasting memories for me

Hard one…in recent memory, “best” was There Will Be Blood

One of the worst I’ve ever seen terrible film.

The Big Lebowski………. With Nuts in May a close 2nd

Only one allowed folks, just the one.

Back to the future
Once upon a time in the west
Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
Traffic
Se7en
The Godfather
Ferris Bueller’s day off

The Lives of Others

Royal tenenbaums. Its funny, its sad, it makes you think, its beautifully shot, great costumes, great sets, great characters and great soundtrack. One of the first films that made me consider “film” as art as much as entertainment.

i love that film.

Ferris Bueller’s day off

I know that I shouldn’t, but this.

you are all wrong.
Best film ever is Once upon a time in the west.

One of the worst I’ve ever seen terrible film.

Is that just because you didn’t enjoy it personally, or because it is actually a badly made film?

Ferris Bueller’s day off

I know that I shouldn’t, but this.

Great film

I love Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade for pure enjoyment, but I rate Goodfellas as my favourite film ever.

Goodfellas

Watched The Jacket last night- brilliant film. Not my favourite but prob sneaked into my top five..

Hamish, litterally just finished some like it hot for the first time.
i suddenly ‘get’ maralyn Munroe, OMG that frontage is amazing 😯

Willow

Goodfellas: Good call (see what I did there?)

Oh and how could I forget

Well, The Godfather part 2 is better than The Godfather for a start.

Probably One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

But there are other great films which sometimes are better.

Is geoffj really saying a semi-amusing pirate film is the best film ever? Blimey, you need to watch some more films matey!

If I can have two then the other is Local Hero.

willow…………..forgotten gem still have the vhs somewhere 😀

question to hard to answer

pushed to choose between

Blade Runner

Unforgiven

Some like it hot

Godfather part 2

Third Man

A Matter of Life and Death
