decades best - 1990's

masterpiece. absolutely astounding. this is easily the best film ive seen in the last year of my life and one of the best i have ever seen. gabriel byrne puts in an astounding performance as does finney, the story was perfect with each twist, and the themes of loyalty and morality were present to a degree rarely captured in a movie. the cohens put in their best script and directing job in this film all should see. this is the best mobster flick i have ever seen bar none.

The most underrated movie ever made. Brilliant. washington and cheadle delivered two of the better acting performances i have ever seen. a throwback to the great films done by warner in the 30's.

One of the funniest movies ever made. one liners abound in this one, even the funniest movies seldom make me laugh out loud but this one got me numerous times.

epic, one of the most well made films ever done. intense and well written, gibson gives the performance of his life.

one of the best made movies of all time, not one to watch over and over, but well done with brilliant acting and heart wrenching checks into reality. wonderful film.

one of the saddest things ever put onto the screen. this is one of the greatest films ever made, but its also one of the hardest to watch. a masterpiece that should always be seen by any movie fan at least once in life.

one of the great comedies in history starring possibly the greatest comedic actor in history. the script, editing, and timing in this film are unusually perfect for a comedy and the story is about as perfectly mapped out as one could have hoped for. it would have been easy to screw this movie up, but i think the reason this is considered one of the great comedies in history is because rather than be formulaic and predictable this film brought murrays character to points where the audience says "if i was in his shoes i think i would do the exact same thing." perfect comedy.

wow. what a powerful film. this movie had little to do with entertainment and much to do with human nature. there were unforgetable scenes in this film, like the two slaves discussing Scripture using only pictures and the speach given by John Quincy Adams (anthony hopkins) at the end of the film. this movie was haunting and heartbreaking, yet it was filled with themes of hope, salvation, and courage. one of the truly great films that has ever been made, the acting was incredible and this is easily one of spielbergs best films. lets all stop neglecting this film and give it the due it deserves.

what an incredible movie. i dont care for spike lee's themes of racial distinction in most of his films, and some of it that was present in this film were annoying, but this film was too brilliant not to love. it has quickly become one of my favorite movies of all time. i tried to identify wether this was a film about love or music, and then i realized its not about either, its a memoir of a musician. i think i like this film more than most for musical reasons and not film reasons, because im such a HUGE jazz fan, but the movie was well made and well acted. the diologue and ending were not typical rehearsed hollywood, they were genuine. many scenes were pointless and didnt further the plot at all, and in this film it was a good thing. it made the characters more real. denzel was incredible as usual, but the entire cast with the exception of indigo was chosen perfectly. the music scenes were really great and because i know jazz, i know that the things that happen to denzels character in this film happen to jazz musicians all the time. i may not always care for spike lee, but he did a wonderful job on this film.

almost as good as the first. underrated and excellent action flick

one of the best animated films of all time, and one of the few sequels better than the first.

val kilmer as doc hooliday might be the best acting performance of all time and the film is so good that i have seen this at least 10 times and it never gets old. a great western.

a classic twist between love and war. a great film with top acting and intense action.

a hidden treasure. the best movie noone has ever heard of. tim roth was superb and a few of the scenes were awe inspiring and brilliant.

one of the great westerns of all time and one of the great films of the 90's. freeman is great as usual and eastwoods character evolves into lengendary status. really good film.
