I've taken the liberty of listing all the above films I like (some I haven't seen)

Goodfellas.

Back to the future

Tremors

The Martian

The Departed

Jaws

I'll add:

Shawshank ( I think it's good, not great).

The Dark Knight

Fight Club

Forrest Gump

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Gladiator

Alien(s)

Django

And Heat...

We must be able to find one of those we all like?!

Toy Story, unless some people are truly miserable then we will have a definitive list

Surely Toy Story is a winner?

🙂

Kind Hearts and Coronets.

And definitely not Forest Gump, Gladiator or Aliens for me. Good films though. I just can't get past the story, acting or script. Never connected.

What’s wrong with Contact then?

Is it the science but that’s confusing you?? 💋

Long dull drawn out rubbish.

Toy Story is a good call, just noted that it was released 23 years ago! Up is another good Pixar film but a bit slower paced - Squirrel!

Someone listed some Tom Hanks films. Nope!

TBH, they're both good, so is the Last Crusade - yep, those 3 great films, I'm glad that's the only ones they made, and lets leave it at that.

“It’s Ok we built another but kept it secret” - I liked this pay off it was very typical of a billionaire's attitude!

You walked out near the end then!

The film is nearly as good as the book. Sagan juggles so many great themes.

Jeez, come on! Indiana Jones? Nah. Like James Bond in stupid costumes.

Usual Suspects is another one, when you know the twist… (Plus the [i]real life[/i] twisted twist)

Where did Robocop come from? Nothing good about hat at all as I remember, well maybe with the exception of the sample on Silver Bullet

Oh yeah, Leon. Good choice.

Heat could've been good, but for the stupid ending.

Ronin, I've seen, but can't remember a thing about it.

I suggested it no one said anything bad about it - what don't you like about it? It's to my eyes a stone cold classic

As usual, increasing numbers of posters just posting films they like rather than films they think everyone will like. I mean Boogie Nights ffs?
