This is just a nice little blog I am making while I wait for Fallout:New Vegas. Let mr just inform you that these 5 movies are not my top 5 favorite movies of all time. I picked these because I feel that they will have the greatest impact on you, and will leave a strong emotional impression that you'll never forget. They may not be the best films ever, but they sure are movies you need to catch (imo).
5. The Silence Of The Lambs (1991)
This is my favorite movie of all time, and it's only at number 5. I feel it's just something you need to catch. The whole movie is just so intriguing, you cannot take you're eyes off the screen while watching it. A great cast followed by a great story makes this one of my must watch films in you're life time. The whole movie is about a up and coming detective (agent sterling) and her assignment to interview Hannibal Lecter, a cold blooded murder. Eventually her assignment takes a different course, she starts using Lecter in order to gain information on a recent killer that has been plaguing the country, his name is buffalo Bill. The movie is so intense and leaves you with chills and exciment. You need to see this movie, it will leave a long lasting impression on you.
4. The Frighteners (1996)
Let's get one thing out of the way, I am not a religous person. That does not mean I cannot enjoy a movie about ghosts and neither should you, if you happen to not be reliogus/believe in ghosts. I can easily say that this is one of the strangest films I have ever seen. It has so many different genres mixed into it, Comedy,Mystery,and Horror. Sometimes I forget im watching an R rated movie. The movie stars one of my favorite actors, Michael J Fox who plays the role of Frank Bannister, a local con artist that tricks people into thinking they're homes are haunted. The plot is much more then that, the local town is being tormented by unwelcomed deaths that are not just by coincidence. All I can say is you will never forget this films, it's something that will warm your heart and easily leave an impression on you. Also, did I mention it is directed by Peter Jackson?
3. Raging Bull (1980)
Can you say "greatest sport's film ever?", well I hope you can because that's what Raging Bull is. Rocky came out in 1976 and it took hollywood by storm. Truly an inspiring movie and at the time the best sport's movie ever made. That is until Raging Bull came out. Raging Bull is more gritty, more serious, and more real then what Rocky could have ever even dreamed of being. Raging Bull is based on the life of Jake La Motta, a guy that's only good for one thing, and that's fighting. The man is so stuck up in his own world that he neglects the ones around him, and ultimate that leads him to his own downfall. It's a truely inspiring and touching film that everybody must see.
2. Donnie Darko (2001)
Easily the most thought provoking film ive seen. Donnie Darko is all about a boy who finds out that the world is apparently going to end in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 12 seconds. I can't honestly go and tell you much more unless I wanted to spoiled it for you so let me just say that you need to see this movie. It's very confusing and it is something you will need to see more then once. If you're someone that enjoys having your brain messed with, I would advise you to see this film. Doonie Darko is easily one of the greatest movies made since 2001, and it is a cult phenomenon.
1. Forrest Gump (1994)
Well im sure alot of people have seen this film, and that is a good thing. Forrest Gump is easily just a heart warming and satisfying movie in every way. I can't really go into details because there is just so much I I could talk about and I have no idea where to start. Trust me, you must see this movie if you haven't yet. Im sure if you're curious you could just ask around, many people have seen this film and you need to get on that if you haven't. It's just such an amazing movie, Tom Hanks performs yet again with such great talent. The way the story is told and scene is another thing that makes it great. So please, see this film and do yourself a favor.
Thank you all for reading and have a great day.
