1. Love Actually

The Laura Linney reveal at the end with her mentally ill brother made me cry.

Great film.

 

[The Dice Man]

Cheers.
I really love that film. I wish more people would talk about, one for it's general underrated Scorsese goodness, and two for De Niro's hugely underrated performance. For a guy who has gotten credit for bringing to life some of those memorable characters in cinema, it's a shame that people don't talk about one of his very best performances.

I just had a look at the trailer for that. Do you know if it was the inspiration for the classic Seinfeld scene where Kramer has the merve griffin set?

6. The Descent
7. Gattaca

[JackOutback]

There's a different between best and favourite; there would plenty of films that I would acknowledge are better than my favourites, films that I thoroughly enjoyed. But ultimately, my favourites are the ones I can watch again and again. In no particular order (other than the first) are Star Wars (do I need to separate the three), Back to the Future, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Memento, The Matrix, The Dark Knight, Pulp Fiction, Die Hard, Flying High.

 

[Roobs321]

2. Once Upon a Time in the West
3. Brief Encounter
4. The Godfather Part II
5. Apocalypse Now (theatrical cut)

[PhatBoy]

1. LOTR trilogy. Two Towers is probably my favourite of the 3 but hard to split.
2. Braveheart. I know it’s historically awful but I love watching it.
3. Usual Suspects. No explanation necessary.
4. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Unmitigated hilarity.
5. Tombstone. Masculinity at its best.
6. Anchorman. Still hilarious.
7. Naked Gun 2.5. See anchorman.
8. The Great Escape. Masterfully made and acted.
9. Predator. More masculinity, massive dudes trying to smash a massive monster. It’s great.
10. Conan The Barbarian. Again, just massive c***s swinging massive swords at one another.

Honorable mentions: Pulp Fiction, Snatch, Django Unchained, A Time To Kill, Horrible Bosses, The Hangover, Semi Pro, Happy Gilmore

It leaves a mark, that's for sure. The kind of movie that you can't stop thinking about once it's over. Doesn't lose anything in repeat viewings either...an absolute classic IMO.
