Heck ... what a choice to make ... I am going to cheat a little by choosing a few that are a "series" of films.

1. Virtually any James Bond film (especially with Connery, Brosnan, Craig or even Lazenby, not so much with Moore or Dalton). If I had to pick just one, then surprisingly it might be Die Another Day from 2002 which was Bond 20 and contained many subtle and not so subtle references to the previous 19 films. Halle Berry in a bikini also helped. I also like Daniel Craig and hope he might do a few more as his appearances seem to be more in line with the grittiness of Connery's version of Bond than the true awfulness of Moore.
   
2. Lord of the Rings Trilogy. whether you like the story or not, the films are stunning.
   
3. Star Wars Parts I-VI. OK so phantom menace wasnt exactly awe inspiring but taken together this set of 6 films is almost as imaginative as Lord of the Rings and raised bar for space movies.
   
4. Braveheart. Not exactly a total masterpiece but as a patriotic Scotsman I like watching this film.
   
5. Dark Knight. I really enjoyed this film. It seems you either love it or hate it. I am firmly in the love it camp.
   

Honourable mentions must go to other films like: City of God (and City of Men), Apocalypto, Silence of the Lambs, Matrix Trilogy, Alien + sequels, Chinatown, French Connection, Monty Python films, Saving Private Ryan, 2001 Space Odyssey, Jaws, Ringu (original Japanese version), Green Mile, Bourne Identity/Supremacy/Ultimatum ......

I could go on (and on and on) but I wont. Lets just say, I like films and have seen a ****load of good ones that I think are excellent.

[Tichy_Blacks_Back]

Off the top of my head

1. Inside Man (2006 - Clive Owen / Denzel Washington) - classic heist movie

2. Fallen (1998 - Denzel Washinton / John Goodman) - classic thriller movie

3. The Big Lebowski (1998 - Jeff Bridges / John Goodman) - classic dude movie

4. Snatch (2000 - everybody) - just classic classic

5. In Bruges (2008 - Brendan Gleeson / Colin Farrell) - only cause I watched it last week

Also JUNO is a must if you haven't already seen it....excellent soundtrack....

Good call on Shawshank Redemption - up there I believe with the all-time greats in current US movie polls....

Restless Natives

Awesome soundtrack to this movie. Was anyone on here present at the filming.......there's a couple o' hibees about 1min.50 secs in !!

Indeed .. another good film and one of many that seemed to pop-up in the early 80s courtesy of Bill forsyth which also included "that sinking feeling", "comfort and joy", "gregory's girl" and "local hero" .....

Thinking of low budget films I enjoyed, it also put me in mind of one from channel 4 called "The Chain" ... a Jack Rosenthal effort about 7 different people moving house and involved in the same chain.
