My Favorite Movies

The coolest man in cinema, Dan Ackroyd with a tv on his head, a supermarket shoot out and a Joe Strummer compiled soundtrack- what more could anyone want?

A moving, majestic, magnetic masterpiece of a movie. Superb.

Argue over whether it's a zombie film or not if you like, I don't think it matters. One of the most intense films ever made and views of London not likely to be see again. Awesome stuff from Britains best director.

For years I thought Goodfellas was the Scorcese yardstick. It isn't, this film is. Brutal, funny, poignant and de Niro and Pesci's double act never better than here. Stunning film.

The funniest movie ever, if I could I'd give it 11 stars.

Christopher Lee was offered the part of Loomis before Donald Pleasance. He turned it down. What an idiot! A truly scary film, which builds to a pulsating climax.

"Whoever sold you those suits had a wonderful sense of humour!"

Exactly.

The original. The best. It cannot be stopped. It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with... I vividly remember watching this and wondering how, if an exploding truck wouldn't kill the Terminator, it was going to end. A classic, never to be forgotten.

First saw this as a 9 year old in the cinema, didn't like it. A (Cary Elwes obsessed) spanish au pere showed me and my sister the light and now we're all word perfect- "You keep saying that word, I do not think it means what you think it means". Priceless!

The best film I've seen this year. But I could be biased. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry, it will make you realise that, in Strummer's own words "people can change anything they want to"- Joe did!

Also features the best soundtrack for any film ever made.

Wanted to see this in the cinema, didn't and forgot about it. The girlfriend happened to catch this on Film 4 a few months ago and was hooked. I watched it a few days later and had my breath taken away. Paddy Considine is truly awesome. Despite the harrowing subject matter, the film has funny moments and some eminently quotable lines- "The lads have this ridiculous idea that-" "yeah it was me" "thought it was" Toby Kebbel is a revelation as Anthony.

James Cameron was at his peak in the mid 80's. Hot on the heels of the Terminator came Aliens. And if you don't like this film then you must have been created by Weyland- Yutani.

Funniest opening sequence ever and some great lines follow. The film turns on the two young lads being shown that for every action there is a reaction. Paddy Considine keeps you on your toes all the way through, in a performance that's hilarious and truly menacing. often in the same scene.

In my humble opinion, Ferris is one of the iconic movie characters and this is one of the funniest films ever made.

Damon, DiCaprio.. Didn't have high hopes after Gangs. Any doubts assuaged by the strains of Gimme Shelter opening the movie, what follows is a rollercoaster ride of a film that will have you rooting for an unlikely happy ending. Fantastic film.

This is the best movie about friendship ever made.

Obsession, loss, obsession and death. Such universal themes are given a very dark treatment by Hitchcock (could there be any other way of treating such themes?) James Stewart maybe more endearing in Harvey, but never as compelling as he is this meisterwork.

Beautifully executed. Sad, funny, moving and some truly excellent music.

5 stars would have done justice to the live footage of the greatest band ever. Unfortunately, this film wasn't just about the Clash live!

Incredibly moving film about the west London 4. Not just for Joe's regrets, but Mick's too. I found it a bit of a tearjerker.
