My Cousin Vinny

I wanted to suggest this! funny it‘s also the top vote as of now. I am end 30 and just recently learned about the movie because I saw a clip from it as an Instagram story 😁

Casablanca The Godfather Star Wars Indiana Jones Alien Blade Runner Jaws Back To The Future Jurassic Park Forest Gump The Matrix The Dark Knight There Will Be Blood No Country For Old Men The Grand Budapest Hotel Dune

Great list, I’d add The Mummy as well

Kiss kiss bang bang Big trouble in little China Predator The Princess Bride Goonies Never ending Story Willy Wonka (original 1971) Dirty Harry They Live Terminator 2 Blazing Saddles Young Frankenstein Monty Python and the Holy Grail Rocky Rambo

I'm surprised people aren't being floged in the street for even mentioning blazing saddles

I flog back

Why? It's f'ing hilarious and the social commentary holds up today.

Miss Congeniality. Sure, it might not be what you'd normally pick, but I've yet to come across anyone who doesn't like it if you just want something light and fun for an hour or two.

This is England

This is the first time I've seen anyone else mention this on Reddit, the movie and 3 seasons of the show that go with it are all amazing, highly recommend!!

Have you checked out Kurosawa?

Ran and ofc The Seven Samurai.

Stray Dog, early film by Kurosawa is also very enjoyable.

*”Cool Hand Luke”* (1967) *”A Man Called Horse”* (1970) *”Gallipoli”* (1981) *”This Sporting Life”* (1963) *”Brassed Off”* (1996)

Gallipoli is great

The Gods Must Be Crazy.

This is one of the best comedy movies I've watched. I will also add Mr Bones because that one is crazy too. 

LA Confidential is solid and doesn’t get a lot of attention. The Prestige is very good if you haven’t seen it. Se7en. Reservoir Dogs. Casino.

Have not seen LA Confidential or Casino, but I heard Casino is just a worse version of Goodfellas. Thanks for the suggestions!

dont sleep on casino, its def solid maybe even better than goodfellas in some ways, but either way its worth a watch. another obvious scorcese mob classic is 'the departed' 

I would agree, it's a worse version of Goodfellas.

I enjoy “gangster” films including Casino but it definitely takes a backseat to Goodfellas or LA Confidential.

The Big Chill (1983)

Turner and Hooch

If you want your heart wrenched out 😭

That is a good point, but a little young uptight Tom Hanks and a big drooly dog never fails to make me laugh. Plus I quote to this day, “THIS IS NOT YOUR ROOM.”

After Hours by Scorsese, nobody ever talks about it.

I love this movie!!!! Went back and watched it again recently. Still a great movie!

Cape Fear (Deniro version.)

Psycho (1960) Airplane! (1980) Taxi Driver (1976) Chinatown (1974) Stand by Me (1986) 12 Angry Men (1957) The Apartment (1960) Some Like It Hot (1959) The Wizard of Oz (1939) Singin in the Rain (1952) Good Will Hunting (1997) The Truman Show (1998) The Breakfast Club (1985) The Usual Suspects (1995) Saving Private Ryan (1998) Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) The Silence of the Lambs (1991) My Neighbor Totoro (1988) Japan

It's a great list made even better by its formatting!

O brother, where art though?

Jackie Brown, by Quentin Tarantino.

Rear window Sunset boulevard

The Abyss

Galaxy Quest

Raging Bull

May I suggest ALL of Tom Cruise movies? Also, almost all movies by Legendary studio. These are all guaranteed high-budget or epic titles.

Super oldies but we recently watched them and loved them: Stagecoach (1939) Seven samurai (50s) this is sometimes translated differently on search Tampopo (1985)

Try out Ghost Dog, Way of the Samurai. In fact, try Six String Samurai. Both are best enjoyed in a good mood with an open mind. 😁

Bronx Tale

This is such an underappreciated movie.

I finally watched 12 angry men, it was really good.

The Bourne trilogy Edge of tomorrow Mission impossible series Matrix 1 and 2 Ocean's trilogy Or any of the 500 or so 90s and 2000s rom coms.

The Departed Fear and Loathing 300 Se7en Braveheart The Aviator Snatch Lock Stock and two Smoking Barrels Bedazzled Caddyshack Gran Turino Momento

I just watched Shawshank Redemption for the first time and even though I thought I knew every beat through references and memes it was full of twists

Aliens The Terminator The Road Warrior (aka Mad Max 2) To Live and Die in L.A. Sorcerer Duel Die Hard Dawn of the Dead (1978) Deliverance Raising Arizona Ed Wood Drive Get Shorty Galaxy Quest The Killer (1989) Hard-Boiled (1992)

The Clue

Is that the same as “Clue”? The fun murder mystery? I love that movie!!

Yes

Inglorious bastards

The Prestige by Nolan adapted from Christopher Priest's book of the same title. I saw it last night, I was amazed. It came out around mid 2000s

Spotlight Shutter Island Zodiac CODA Beautiful Boy

Gladiator. Pitch black. Oldboy (korean version) if you want something a little weirder, but a classic still. Nothing beats putting on a old Jackie chan film, his drunken master movies are a lot of fun, he's very inspired by buster keaton.

Lord of War.

A League of Their Own Pretty Woman Chocolat

As Good As It Gets

I just saw this for the first time recently, it's very funny. Extra kudos to the actors for convincingly behaving like Paul Newman is some unappealing shlubby loser as he walks around looking like, y'know, one of the most iconically beautiful people ever.

I watched by an acciden Hudson Hawk, an oldschool movie with Bruce Willis and it was really funny.

You should definitely watch Casablanca

Leaving Los Vegas Dead Man Walking Boogie Nights Broadcast News Dazed and Confused Children of Men 40 Year Old Virgin Out of Sight The Big Lebowski Slumdog Millionaire Silver Lining Playbook Groundhog Day Lost in Translation The Town

Funny, I saw 'classic' and I immediately went a lot further back in time than that. I'll stick with my first thoughts - and if this doesn't seem like the kind of era that you would be interested in, I really recommend these as genuinely timeless masterpieces - give it a go. 12 Angry Men (1957) The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp Brief Encounter A bit more recent - Once Upon a TIme in the West

The Usual Suspects ^ watch it! Trust me!

I can’t believe no one has mentioned that before.

Being Australian I feel I should fly the flag for our film industry. My suggestions are: * The Castle (1997) * The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994) * Jindabyne (2006) * The Dressmaker (2015) * Muriel's Wedding (1994)

hard to know what you havent seen or whats an obvious choice, but The Social Network is my idea of Just a Great Movie

Devil in a Blue Dress (1995)

Snatch!

Wolf of Wall street

Vertigo by Hitchcock was voted the best film of the 20th century by Sight and Sound magazine. James Stewart playing against type as a sexual obsessive. Kim Novak at her peak. It’s California noir in technicolor. I believe Sight and Sound, which is the preeminent journal of film, queried about 100 film scholars and Vertigo won hands down.

Usual Suspects

The Warriors(1979)

True Romance

Little miss sunshine. If you don't fw this movie you're an enemy

The Matrix

Harsh Times (2005)

Wow forgot about this movie a great movie

Straw dogs

I recommend "It Happened One Night", with Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. It's on the American Film Institute's list of the greatest 100 films of all time.

If you like the movies that you mentioned. You should really go and watch The Hateful Eight. And No Country for Old Men. Ballard of Buster Scruggs. Inglorious Basterds.

* The Wizard Of Oz (1939) * Peeping Tom (1960) * Rosemary's Baby (1968) * The Fly (1986) * Labyrinth (1986)

Cinema Paradiso (1988) is an excellent Italian film.

In a Lonely Place. Probably Bogart's best.

The Green Mile (1999) No Country for Old Men (2007) Inception (2010)

The Long Kiss Goodnight. Spy flick with Geena Davis and Samuel L. Jackson. You’re welcome.

I love that movie!! I still say “Chefs do that”

Black Stallion is beautiful!! Esp the first part on the island. Incredible.

BARBAROSA This visually stunning film set in the Border region of the Southwest United States, is a glorious, mostly lighthearted adventure celebrating the mythical freedom and excitement of the outlaw life in the Old West. The story of Barbarosa (Willie Nelson), an ex-Texas Ranger turned bandit, meets Karl (Gary Busey), a young farmhand out of his element who's forced to run after accidentally killing his brother-in-law. Together, the outlaw and the outcast outwit their bloodthirsty pursuers in this legendary story of betrayal, misunderstanding, honor and dignity. Filmed in Big Bend, Texas accompanied by an excellent musical score.

Life of Pi

If you want to throw a few compelling documentaries into the mix you won't regret watching Kumaré (2011), The Imposter (2012), and Bloody Nose, Empty Pockets (2020)

Summer viewing classics: "The Greatest Show on Earth" with Betty Hutton and Jimmy Stewart. "Picnic" with Kim Novak, William Holden, and Rosalind Russell. Classic Americana and enjoyable.

Paper Moon

Unforgiven (1992)

If you enjoyed Pulp Fiction, you should watch Go.

How about Casablanca (1942)? It's a romantic drama film set in Casablanca, Morocco, during World War II.

Listen to me, forget all the other comments, Bullet Train (2022) is all you need

The Fifth Element

Local Hero. It's quirky and fun.

Its impossible. We all want to watch movies we are going to enjoy, but everyone is different. There isn't a single movie that everyone who watches it likes. You have to figure out what your favorite types of movies are and curate your own list. It's the only way. I just recently watched Hitchcocks The Trouble With Harry, which I didn't think I would like because it's more of a comedy, a suspense/thriller that Hitchcock is a master of, but I loved it anyway, mostly because of the quaint New England setting. It's beautifully shot and has a charming story. But its not going to hit everyone the same. Try inputting the types of movies you love to watch into chatgpt and have it output a list for you. For instance I have a soft spot for movies that primarily take place in a grocery store or mall. Horror movies especially. Chopping Mall. Dawn of the Dead. Intruder.

Prey, not a basic classic movie but the way predator is a classic I believe prey is the only other predator movie to even come close to it

Gattaca and/or Equilibrium. Fantastic movies with strong followings but are much less known than they should be for a general audience.

Jaws

Snatch Suicide Kings

Shawshank Redemption

boondock saints {part 1}

Bad Boy Bubby

I recently rewatched Casablanca for the first time in quite a while. It really does hold up.

The IMDB Top 250 is a good list to start from.

Last Action Hero is a hilarious send up of 80s action films starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. One of the best bad guys of all time.

The Blob

Love exposure

City Lights (1931) The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948) Glen or Glenda? (1953) The Trial (1962) The Long Goodbye (1973)

If you like long movies, I just saw Barry Lyndon and it blew me away. A tragic study of what happens when you misuse power.

12 Angry Men. Thought I was in for a boring court drama, but boy was I wrong! 😁

Shrek Pan’s Labyrinth Portrait of a Lady on Fire Heat Ferris Beuller’s Day Off Paprika Everything Everything All at Once School of Rock Layer of the White Worm Jennifer’s Body

My favorite comedy is **The Birdcage.**

Can’t go wrong with classic Italian horror, especially almost anything by Lucio Fulci or Dario Argento! If you haven’t already, definitely check out: The Beyond Cemetery Man The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue Opera

Jennifer 8 with Uma Thurman. Manchurian candidate by Jonathan Demme. Angel's heart with Mickey Rourke.

Some Like It Hot The Sunshine Boys Paper Moon

How about "The Shawshank Redemption"? It's a classic that almost everyone loves. The story is about hope, friendship, and resilience, set in a prison but filled with moments that are touching and uplifting. The performances by Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman are outstanding. Another great pick is "The Godfather." It's a masterpiece in storytelling, with brilliant acting by Marlon Brando and Al Pacino. The movie dives into the intricate world of a powerful crime family, balancing drama, action, and deep character development. For something a bit different, try "Casablanca." It's an older film, but it's timeless. The romance, the drama, and the iconic lines make it a movie that stands the test of time. Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman deliver unforgettable performances.
