Top 5 movies of all time?

Question

And your reasons. Please.

And this is just in your opinion, of course, : )

Answer 1

#1 - Blues Brothers. Classic comedy. Some people don't find it funny, but, in my opinion, everything is funny. Maybe it's because I watched it waaay too many times?

#2. Monty Python and the Holy Grail - See reasons to #1, minus the "some peope don't find it funny"

#3. Good Will Hunting - Touching, a little sad, and funny at the same time.

#4. Forrest Gump - Need I say more?

#5 - Office Space - Hilarious movie.

Answer 2

1 The Godfather 1&2
2 Wierdscience
3 The Boondock Saints
4 Animal House
5 Rocky 2

Answer 3

Historically speaking I would say:

Fritz Lang's METROPOLIS-- wonderful special effects for its time; GONE WITH THE WIND never dies; THE WIZARD OF OZ;
BEN HUR for which the term "block buster" was invented; STAR WARS (Episode IV) because it redefined special effects; and THE LORD OF THE RINGS. I could really add a few more but this is six and you asked for five. All of these movies redefined the way people looked at movies.

Of course you should have been a little more specific with the question. Most people will put their person favorites but that isn't necessarily how top five of all time should be defined.

Answer 4

There have been a lot of great movies made over the yrs. A lot of favorites for everyone I'm sure, but to narrow it down to 5>>>>.Here's my top 5 for various reasons:In no particular order.****
Stagecoach(1939)----John Wayne(The Duke) & John =The Ringo Kid.{ I love all his movies} John Carradine as the undertaker was awesome & he also starred in The Shootist with John Wayne.
Gone With The Wind(1939 also)----Clark Cable, Vivian Leigh, Leslie Howard,Olivia DeHavilland,George Reeves{Who was found shot to death in 1959 & to this day of whether he killed himself or was murdered has never been answered.} The last but not least actress in this movie to make it a great classic & a part of history was Hattie McDaniel who became the 1st African American person to recieve an Oscar, as she won it for Best Supporting Actress.

Answer 9

2. Forrest Gump
3. Lethal Weapon

Answer 10

schindlers list, at the end when the real person and character walk hand and hand- very powerful.
the green mile -the closet I have ever seen to a stephen king book for a movie, misery was close but not as good as the book.
pulp fiction,resevoir dogs, and hostel- good clean carnage but could have more gratuitous sex, wickedly funny, and hostel was most disturbing for a few scenes and any movie that can provoke strong feelings good or bad is doing something right and a good flick
