#20: Alien: It's Jaws, but in space and with something you never want to come face to face with. The visual effects and sets make the film feel claustrophobic yet they look so good. The cast is well build with Weaver taking the lead role. Harry Dean Stanton is amazing as the ships engineer and John Hurt did a great job till his fateful meeting. Also don't forget the crews four legged friend the cat Jonesy.
#19: Casablanca: One of the best Humphrey Bogart films. What a story, with different cultural subjects and human emotions being talked about. The cast was great in the roles they all played. The setting for the film was amazing and would not have worked anywhere else.
#18: Halloween: The original film is the best one. From the suspenseful story of Michael and his escape from the hospital to the chilling end. There is not many films that can suck the bravado out of a room. Plus seeing a killer wear the face of William Shatner is kind of funny. The Rob Zombie film is more violent, but not as suspenseful as the original.
#17: Jurassic Park: It made more people want to find dinosaurs then any other film. The computer effects blended so well with the live action you could not believe it. The cast was great with Wayne Knight was great as the bumbling computer nerd and Sam Neill was amazing as Alan Grant the dinosaur expert.
#16: Million Dollar Baby: One of the few films that made me almost come to tears. The story was so amazing and well written. The acting was top notch. The ending was so amazing and emotional it was kind of hard to watch. One of Clint Eastwood's best films.
#15: Terminator 2: Another amazing film that uses computer generated effects well. The acting may suffur in the added in scenes but if you see the theatical version the acting is great. Robert Patrick was amazing as the evil Terminator that would not stop for anything. Arnold did a great job in his role, but you may still hate him from the first film.
#14: Monty Python and the Holy Grail: What a funny film from a group of great comedians. Some of the most memorable scenes in a film. The Black Knight, the Holy Hand Grenade and the first encounter with the French army. So many lines to remember that it is almost do many for one person. The mix of the cartoons adds to the humor of the film.
#13: The Departed: The ending is the most shocking gangster ending ever. The story is strong and handled by a cast that is just as strong. Alec Baldwin and Marky Mark do some great performances in the film for the roles they have. The best ones are Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio just work so well against each other. The music is amazing from Dropkick Murphy's to the classical music being used there is just the right balance and the music never out powers the film.
#12: The Indiana Jones Trilogy: I say trilogy because I do not count The Crystal Skull. The first three films are all well done. They are all different from one another that they can all stand as single films. The weakest one out of the three is Temple of Doom, but it is still a great film that must be seen. Raider's of the Lost Ark and The Last Curcade are the stronger films. Harrison Ford just made archeology a cool major for college.
#11: Toy Story: It made adults miss childhood and made children miss their toys while watching this film. It made me want to work for Pixar. The second and third films are just as great if not the third film may just be better. But the first film is the film that started Pixar on the road they are on and gave us a film that just made you want to play with toys. The voice acting is incredible with Tom Hanks and Tim Allen in the lead roles. John Ratzenberger made a pig cool, fun and gave Pixar his voice for every film so far.
