The 10 BEST movies of all time

[glynparson]

I hate the godfather. i watch tons of movies and i can not stand the film. It is bloated garbage in my opinion. As Peter Griffin says it insists upo itself. It tries way too hard. It has very little redeeming qualities besides incredible acting. What I would say are the 10 best films not my favorites but the best.

1. A Clockwork Orange
2. Apocalypse Now
3. Silence Of The Lambs
4. Jaws
5. Pulp Fiction
6. Rear Window
7. The Good The Bad and The Ugly
8. Blackkklansman
9. 2001
10. The Hateful Eight

I of course recognize more people feel the same as you and the list about the godfather I just feel its an utter fraud of a great film.

My all-time favorite is "On the Waterfront", but putting together a top ten could be tough because each time I do it, it's likely to change a little.

Best horror film of all-time: The Exorcist.
I watched it as a kid and I still have nightmares to this day.

I would rate Godfather 2 very slighly over Godfather as my favorite. Schindler's List and Taxi Driver would have to be there as well. Favorite comedy is easily Slap Shot.

Witness for the Prosecution is a great movie, just outstanding acting.

The object was to list your estimate of the 10 BEST movies of all time. Not favorites.

CHANGE TO: 10 BEST or 10 FAVORITES or BOTH!

My Favorites: (no order)
12 angry men
My cousin Vinnie
The Graduate
Dr. Strangelove
Rear Window
Jaws
Rocky
Cool Hand Luke
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
The Bridge on the River Kwai

Seven Samurai? Foreign? What are your others?
Hateful Eight??
Waterfront - excellent - watched many times. Change is expected.
Yes, Godfather 2 over Godfather.
Witness - good - disliked the ending.

If there is a better scene ever than Marlene Dietrich on the witness stand saying Damn you! Damn you! Damn you! I'd like to see it. The ending may have been a little over the top, I don't disagree, but the whole thing was just so well done, Charles Laughton was brilliant and Dietrich, for all her reputation as just a sex symbol, could act with the greats of her era.

Seven Samurai of course is Japanese, from the great Akira Kurosowa who also directed the incomparable Toshiro Mifune in Rashomon.
