Your top 5 all time fav. films?

[Aztecs27]

I'm genuinely shocked how many people have Top Gun in their top 5!

Don't get me wrong, it's a cult classic, but top 5 worthy? Not on your nellie!

2 people? Hardly the great unwashed is it? Anyway it is a personal choice so what odds?

I think I'm just shocked they're in anyone's top 5 to be honest!

But you're right, personal choice is what it boils down to.

in no order

the hangover
law abiding citizen
batman - the dark knight

I dont watch many films but these are probably the 5 I would choose on entertainment value.

 

[AuburnWarrior]

Braveheart
Shawshank Redemption
Withnail & I
The Green Mile
The Life of Brian

One special mention must go to Goodfellas. It is from this film that my 'shot in the face' quote comes from..

 

[Hobbit]

Saving Private Ryan
The Legend of Bagger Vance
Cars
The Sum of All Fears
The Great Escape

 

[tincup]

Kill Bill vol 1 and 2 (counting as 1)
The Green Mile
The Shawshank Redemption
Leon
True Romance.

I managed to narrow it down to these but it could have included any of the following,
Life of Brian
Any Given Sunday
The Untouchables
Goodfellas
Clerks 1 and 2
Hamburger Hill
Training Day
Forrest Gump
American History X
And any of the Final Destination films

Not in any order:

Top Gun
Saving Private Ryan
South Park the Movie
13th Warrior
The Big Lebowski

Like a lot of others its tough to narrow it to 5.

Good Will Hunting

I like threads like this, it gives me some great ideas about films I either haven't seen or forgotten about and it seems like it is going to be a long winter

 

[Ken_A]

Forest Gump
The Hangover
Man on Fire
Enemy at the Gate
Trainspotting

 

[Macster]

Shawshank....
Dances with Wolves.
Saving Private Ryan.
Heat.
Taking Chance.

Its unlikely that any of you will have seen Taking Chance, it was made by HBO presumably for Cable/TV.
I read an article on it on a flight in the US, and *cough* downloaded it *cough*,.....sat and watched it with wife & 2 teenagers......and its the ONLY filme we have ever watched together that no-one spoke at all during it.
THE most moving film I have ever seen....period.

Taking Chance

 

[Tommo21]

Godfather 1 n 2

Pulp Fiction

The Good the Bad and the Ugly....seen it when it first came out in 66.

Raging Bull. Acting is so good, so good. De Niro and Pesci are amazing and Cathy Moriarty is drop dead gorgeous.

This is acting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dS5eez_f4d8&feature=related

 

[SyR]

Donnie Brasco
Goodfellas
The Big Lebowski
Worlds Fastest Indian
Shooter

The next five would be:
