Top 10 Favourite great acted movies

This is the best movie i have seen this year. Ben Affleck might as well retire because his little brother done what Ben never could for all those years and that is act.

The movie is beautiful and the story is fascinating. This is more on Robert Ford's story than Jesse and to me that is more interesting because we have seen plenty of movies made about the infamous outlaw but i wanted to know more about the man who pulled the trigger.

The movie is long and not for people who like action and lots of wild wild west shootings because this it is not. This is a great movie, needs patience and someone who appreciates really good and well made movies.

The greatest horror movie ever to me. The score, acting, characters, story, set... flawless. One of Hitchcocks best easily and probably my favourite movie of all time.

I have seen this movie around 50 times or more and never ever get sick of it. The love I have for this movie is scary, it's just too good. Hitchcock is the greatest director that ever lived.

Anthony Perkins is the perfect cast as Norman Bates. His good innocent looks are convincing enough through out the movie to keep you wondering what the truth is. I believe it's the greatest horror performance ever and one of the most interesting villain characters in cinema history. No one could have done it like Perkins did.

This is the movie that got me into black & white and Hitchcock and it has a special place in my heart forever. It has one of if not the most well known scene in cinema history (shower scene) and one of the best sets in the Bates Motel and the creepy house.

a perfect portrayal of human greed by the man who seems to always give 110% when he is acting. The movie's pace seems to be a big problem with many, just like the assassination of Jesse James which was another gem but if a movie is good, pace does not matter too much.

The whole beginning of the movie sets it all nicely, the ere music alone kind of makes up your mind about what kind of movie this is going to be. A very unique soundtrack/score that works perfectly with the kind of character we are watching.

Out of all the great Westerns that came out recently, this was easily one of the best acted and in my opinion a far superior movie to No Country For Old Men, even with the way it portrays the message. Daniel Day Lewis is a man that deserves all the praise he gets and this movie proves it.

The greatest gangster movie ever. Al Pacino's best performance to date. The whole build up of him from being the innocent "don't want to be in this business" guy to what he becomes in part 2 is just the perfect transformation (Lucas should have took notes).

Brando comes back with a powerful performance that lives on to this day. Francis Ford Coppolas directing here was phenomenal and he brought out the best in all the actors. Caan, Duvall and especially Keaton were equally as good as their main stars.

Easily one of the best movies made in my generation/life time. To me, top 5 or maybe even best movies from the 90's.

One of the best casts I've ever watched where everyone plays their character to perfection. A mix of characters and talented actors which in a way some reflect to their real persona ala Russell Crowe being a nut in real life.

Curtis Hanson portrays the whole Hollywood/L.A glamor so well that the movie almost feels like it's from that era, something i didn't feel with other movies that try so hard to portray an era or time. The set design and direction is also fantastic.

The story itself is great and you can hardly see any fault in it. We can't also forget the score which compliments the whole movie very well indeed.

This is one of my all time favourite thrillers. No one in the world could have played Hannibal like Anthony Hopkins did. Jodie Fosters played her role great also and the chemistry on screen between the Doctor and herself worked very well. The movie is very interesting and scary. Who could forget the dance with the tacked In between scene? Haha.

Let us get the obvious out of the way, the movie is great mostly because one hell of a powerhouse performance from Christian Bale.

The plot, story, twist whatever you want to call it is a bit predictable and an over used formula BUT not many have done what Bale did for this roll. I believe that movies aren't just about giving a good performance or the story but it's also about the dedication actors and actresses put into their roll. For example Frida. I love passion and Bale here shows why he is probably one of the best actors if not the best actor of our new generation.

This is a must see, Bale deserves all the recognition for this movie because it's not every day where someone loses 60 stones for a small movie.

Many say this has a Hitchcockian feel to it and i can't agree more. The score is brilliant and reminds you so much of Hitchcocks Psycho. Matter of fact Bales performance in some ways is very similar to Anthony Perkins Norman Bates.

when i first heard about this movie, i thought no way in hell could they pull off a movie that long in one room with 12 guys talking. Trust me, i don't care if you get bored easy or don't like black and white movies.. this is a MUST. I was hooked on the first 10 minutes...

Henry Fonda isn't the only star here, each character give an interesting performance and each one have their own story and reasons for their choice. The final build up to the finale was executed exceptionally as well.

To me Hitchcock was the master of making a great movie in as little set used as possible, here Sidney Lumet does the exact same thing and creates an all time classic.

I watched this recently, it's been a long time since i saw it. The reason I love movies like this is that you appreciate them more every time you watch them again. I have only seen it once or twice before and that was a long time ago. This time I'm more aware of things as you learn with each movie and with the years that pass.

The city and atmosphere that Fincher introduces us too is hunting, it's a city that you really wouldn't want to move to. Almost as depressing looking as Boys Don't Cry. The characters feed off each other very well and they really run the whole movie so a brilliant job by Freeman and Pitt.

The ending, when I saw it the first time was shocking to me but I appreciate it even more now even though I know the secret. The last 10 minutes of the movie were some of the most edge of the seat moments where you just couldn't move your eyes away. The tension and suspense really glues you to the screen till the credits roll UP the screen.

If Hitchcock was the greatest director in the west then Akira is obviously and deservedly the master of the far east.

At a time where Hollywood seems to be lacking creativity and running out of ideas, it's always nice to watch a movie like this to remind you of the great film history outside the west. You can see the influences and where so many ideas are stolen or borrowed from.

This movie isn't perfect and although i was fine with the duration, i felt that they could have showed us more regarding the 3 year reign fir the homeless man as the Lord. Other than that and maybe some confusing parts like the battles, this is a fantastic achievement like so many others by this late director.
