Just checking to see what everyone's into. Here is a list of my top 10 favorite movies and I've seen ALOT of films. I'm old.

 

 

1. The Perks of Being a Wallflower

2. Martyrs

3. Zootopia

4. 8MM

5. The Shawshank Redemption

6. Se7en

7. Up

8. Gone Baby Gone

9. In the Valley of Elah

10. Zodiac

 

 

 

As you can see, my taste is all over the place. I have horror, drama, animated, mysteries and thrillers. The only one I would really not recommend seeing is Martyrs. It is a French extreme horror film that is completely disturbing. It's a brilliant movie, but it stuck with me for months. I think I might have gotten a touch of PTSD after watching it. It's like nothing I've ever seen from an American film, so watch it at your own risk. If you can look passed the brutality, it's a masterpiece. 

 

I know some people will look at my top rated film and laugh, but there is something about that film that gets to me every time I watch it. I just think it's a great story with wonderful acting.

"What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."

No judgement on Armegeddon. Everyone has a guilty pleasure. While Lethal Weapon 4 may not be my favorite movie of that series, I believe it's among the top 3 franchise of all time. I love them. The chemistry between Mel Gibson and Danny Glover was fantastic. I was lucky enough to meet Danny Glover once. He's a lot taller than I expected and he's a super nice guy.

1 The Prestige

2 Saving Private Ryan

3 Fight Club

4 Shaw-shank Redemption

5 Empire Strikes Back

6 Cinderella Man

7 Guardians of the Galaxy

8 The Dark Knight (should have been called the Joker)

9 Pulp Fiction

10 American Beauty

cinematography is beautiful, story is a bit cheesy but well done.  The thing that really wins it for me is the very end when he has the line about the life magazine motto.
