Top 5 movies

List your favourite movies (top 5 , top 10 or top 3).


Mine are, in no particular order:

1) Cloud Atlas: One of the most underrated movie of the year 2012. I see it as a lesson about humanity that repeats the same cycles over and over. It also has one of the best ending I've seen as well as a nice OST.

2) Brazil: A really good dark comedy and a critic of the system we live in pictured in a dystopia. Cult movie of the 80's. Reminds me a bit of 1984.

3) Donnie Darko: Hard to describe movie about a teenager who has visions of a giant Bunny-man. The movie treat subjects as questionning authority and time travel.

What I like about this movie is you don't really know if Donnie travels in a parralel universe and save the world or is just crazy.

4) 12 Monkeys: Epic movie that illustrates the time travel paradox.

Again, you don't know in the end if the event happened for real or if Cole is simply crazy or even Railly could be crazy as well.

5) Trainspotting: Scotish tragic-comedy of the 90's about young adults that inject heroin on daily basis. Picture well the marginal life of drug addicts. Cult movie and first big role of Ewan McGregor.

While it's almost impossible to choose, I'll do top 10:

1) Blood in Blood out - A personal favorite about east L.A. gangs, and prison. Very entertaining.
2) Back to the Future - Classic epitomizes my love for entertaining movies. Time travel ftw!
3) The Sandlot - a childhood favorite, bleeds nostalgia.
4) Aliens 2 - I love sci-fi stuff, and killer aliens, and Ripley is a straight-up bad ass.
5) Terminator 2 - The epic 90's blockbuster.
6) Poltergeist - Scary shit.
7) Platoon - My favorite war movie with interesting character study.
8) Braveheart - William Wallace!
9) Scarface - Tony Montana!
10) Night of the Living Dead - Low budget black and white zombie greatness.

You got some classics in that list. I really enjoyed Back to the future, Aliens, Terminator 2, Platoon and Braveheart.

I would say my top 5 movies are:

1.) A.I. Artificial Intelligence- it strikes a chord with me

2.) Mrs. Doubtfire- a movie I've liked since I was little

3.) Spirited Away- a great animated movie

4.) He's Just Not That Into You- a romantic comedy

5.) Wall-E - a great somewhat subtle environmentalist movie

A.I. and Sprited Away would definitely be in my top 10 or top 15, Sprited Away being my favorite anime movie.

A.I. is really cool. Love the robot man-[sexist comment] character lol.
A somewhat similar good movie (imo) to A.I. is Bicentennial Man.

1) Dangerous liaisons ,1998

2)Schindler's list

3)Misery

4)exorcist

5)Shawshank redemption

I remember dropping tears the first time I saw Schindler's List at the end of the movie when he is enumerating how many lives he could have saved by selling the stuff he still has: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOoWpTxKJGA

Shawshank Redemption was also really good.
