Simply put, what do you think are the top 10 best movies of all time?

EDIT: I have edited this from 'best movie of all time' to 'top 10' at the request of other posters.

Simply put, what do you think is the best movie of all time?

I think it's tough, but I would probably go with Saving Private Ryan. That said, there are a lot of truly excellent movies out there :D.

None. There are many excellent movies that could have that title.

The Lord of the Rings: Trilogy, The Hobbit, Donnie Darko, Saving Private Ryan, The Brave Heart, Full Metal Jacket, Platoon, Apocalypse Now, The Dark Knight, The Green Mile, Forest Gump, Cast Away( I like Tom Hanks), Wall-E, Finding Nemo, To Kill a Mocking Bird, Flags of our Fathers, Letters from Iwo Jima, Once upon a time in the west, Back to the Future, Star Wars.

Some of those, I forgot some, put them in the order you like....

Impossible to say given that movies age over time and are more significant to some eras of time than others. biggest_loser

I guarentee you Good Will Hunting and American Beauty will leave you thinking for hours after watching them. They actually changed my perception on life after seeing them. That's how powerful they were to me.

So yes. You are in for a treat. :)

Jurassic Park is definitely one of them. Revolutionary for its time. Hasn't really aged a day either.foxhound_fox
