Juno
The best movie I've seen in 2007. funny, witty, brilliant writing, great actors and a bitter sweet ending.
42
Transformers (2007,  PG-13)
Transformers
Barely watched the cartoon as a kid so I wasn't really looking forward to it but as Michael bay was directing and Megan Fox is hot I decided to give it a shot, I was quite surprised with the great humor it had till mid of the movie and when the whole action scenes started, it just got a whole lot better :)
43
A Walk to Remember (2002,  PG)
44
Amelie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain) (2001,  R)

What a beautiful movie, one of few characters I have ever been able to relate too and I think my all time favorite movie.
45
The Godfather (1972,  R)
The Godfather
pff, as If I'd go into giving such a good film one of my lazy reviews.
46
The Godfather, Part II (1974,  R)
47
Donnie Darko (2001,  R)
Donnie Darko
Answers aren't simply handed out, rather the viewer is left to draw many conclusions instead and thats something I liked, each can interpret their own message and mine was about destiny.
48
Scarface (1983,  R)
Scarface
If the movie has a flaw, it's that it comes at you like a raging bull. It doesn't so much engage the viewer as assault him. ''Scarface'' is as voracious and unyielding a production as Tony Montana himself. Nothing is left to the viewer's imagination and that's not always bad :as seen in this case.
49
The Notebook (2004,  PG-13)
The Notebook
"I Think I have something in my eye...", Nicholas Sparks is a great author, I dislike most boy meets girl type movies but this was truly beautiful, wonderful acting, brilliant plot (few cliches) and one roller coaster of emotions from joy to sadness :)
50
The Fountain (2006,  PG-13)
The Fountain
One of thew few magical films I have had the honor of watching, like any art it's not everybody's cup of tea...must been seen a few times to be understood completely, exquisite acting, love the melody...it has a soulful and romantic interpretation of desperation and peace which is what touched me.
51
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975,  R)
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Beautiful story comes to life by great acting, comes close to perfection in every way and set a landmark for it's era =D
52
La Science des Ręves (The Science of Sleep) (2006,  R)
La Science des Ręves (The Science of Sleep)
One of those movies where you either love it or hate it, I found the main character annoying in his childish, needy behavior yet could relate to many other of his fantasies/emotions...not usually a fan of the artistic type effects they used but I felt it gave it that special touch in this movie.
53
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (2004,  R)
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
A "nice" movie :p...why do I already relate to the odd characters :S
54
Into the Wild (2007,  R)
Into the Wild
I read the book when I was young and it was one of those books that changed my perspective on things, the movie wasn't what I expected but then again it never is after reading the book, beautifully shot I thoroughly enjoyed it.
55
American Beauty (1999,  R)
American Beauty
A deep, wonderful, penetrating film; extraordinary irony in a psychological drama about the American life with a diverse set of strange characters.

WALL-E (2008,  G)

Milk?
65
The Crow (1994,  R)

Dark and yet there is something beautiful and poetic about it, the irony of Brandon's death in a movie about death...compares to Ledges joker.
66
Bridge to Terabithia (2007,  PG)
Bridge to Terabithia
This movie is made for people that have grown up with a strong imagination, what a beautiful and sweet film, I truly loved it! :)....the ending was a bit sad but the story is magical and it brought back so many memories of when I use to have those fantasies as kid, only I never had a cool playmate like that :(
67
Me and You and Everyone We Know (2005,  R)

Sometimes predictable and dragged on but looking at it through the right eyes you will see a beautiful (yet simple) peace of cinematography the same way they could see Neverland :)

Fairy tales as they should be...I remember laughing throughout the whole thing the first time I watched it =)

One of the few 'chick flicks' (wouldnt say it is) that I thought had a lot of meaning and emotion to it with real life characters.
78

86

What Dreams May Come
One of the most underrated movies I've watched in a while, has some of the best special effects in cinematography I've seen, beautiful shots & lighting, heart warming plot and talented actors (except the girl who I thought was a boy).
87
The Usual Suspects (1995,  R)
The Usual Suspects
Most modern mystery flicks try so hard to have twist and turns and just end up with an over kill, this one doesn't and keeps you in suspense till the end...
88
A Very Long Engagement (Un long dimanche de fianįailles) (2004,  R)
A Very Long Engagement (Un long dimanche de fianįailles)
When Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Audrey Tautou do a movie together...I'll always watch it,
Audrey Tautou with her beautiful personality and amazing acting skills and Jeunet's directing in this film is a combination of Chaplin (the romance and comedy); Hitchcock (the incredible camera work, mystery and storytelling) and Spielberg (the battle scenes and emotion)...I'd give it 5 stars but it had too much sex in it :S guess you cant expect less from a French film.
89
Life Is Beautiful (La Vita č bella) (1998,  PG-13)
Life Is Beautiful (La Vita č bella)

91
Three Colors: Blue (Trois couleurs: Bleu) (1993,  R)
Three Colors: Blue (Trois couleurs: Bleu)
One of the great french films of it's time...very personal yet simple plot movie which may bore some people as it only shows deep complex human emotions...it's one of the the best beautiful music + simple visual story in the french cinema history that only a sensible few music lovers will appreciate.I want to see the other 2 films (Rouge and Bialy) in the same trilogy.
92
He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (Ā la folie... pas du tout) (2002,  PG-13)
He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not (Ā la folie... pas du tout)
An insane type of love, not sure if I like Quirky Audrey as Amelie or Crazy Audrey as Angélique better but either way she always has that beautiful strange personality to her.
93
Keith (2008,  PG-13)
Keith
BEAUTIFUL love story...I know it's similar to other movies in the past but this one was extra special for some reason...it's so relatable! and the ending was just perfect.
94
Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in) (2008,  R)
Låt den Rätte Komma In (Let the Right One in)
Best love story/horror movie I've seen in a while, and quite unique too, one of few films that I've experienced were heart warming yet kinda creepy at the same time if you watch it with the original voices and not the dubbed version like some have.
95
Martyrs (2008,  R)
Martyrs
Screwed up, Twisted, Gross, Disturbing and never ending thrills...a movie that can get all those emotions out of me deserves a good rating but some parts were just nihlistic.
96
Girl, Interrupted (1999,  R)
Girl, Interrupted
Jolie does a wonderful role, it makes being crazy seem like something to be proud of
97
Battle Royale (Batoru Rowaiaru) (2001,  Unrated)
Battle Royale (Batoru Rowaiaru)

98

Harold and Maude
Unique movie with a lot of heart and humor...it might be a black comedy at times but its hilarious and has a beautiful story that revolves around it.
99
Ā l'intérieur (Inside) (2007,  Unrated)
Ā l'intérieur (Inside)
Jesus Christ!...this movie is one of the most disturbingly shocking and nauseating films I've ever seen in my life, the amount of gore...the poor pregnant woman, arghhh, makes me not want to have kids for a very long time.
100
Rushmore (1998,  R)
Rushmore
I envy the self confidence Max Fisher has in this movie, original and fun to watch.

104
Roman Holiday (1953,  Unrated)
Roman Holiday
Audrey Hepburn will always be the most beautiful actress in my eyes, shes stunning in this movie and so sweet, the movie is very simple but I think thats what makes it so great and the Roman setting as the background in black and white makes it perfect.
105
Orphan (2009,  R)
Orphan
Brilliant acting by Isabelle, best I've seen in a child star for a long long time and quite a decent/entertaining well made movie with a twist ending.
106

The NeverEnding Story
One of the best 80's films...sensible boy trying to get over his mums death by escaping into a world of fantasy.
107
Up (2009,  PG)
Up
Pixar just keeps getting better and better, this one has a lot of heart with some sad moments (I just loved how cute the old couple were and the adventures the had) but also funny ones too =).
108
Because of Winn-Dixie (2005,  PG)
Because of Winn-Dixie
I throughly liked this movie, the relationship of Winn Dixie and friendless Opal is very sweet.
109
Zombieland (2009,  R)
Zombieland
Hilarious, hahah, can relate quite a bit with Columbia's character and all his weird neurotisms, best zombie/comedy I've seen since Shaun of the Dead.
110
(500) Days of Summer (2009,  PG-13)
(500) Days of Summer
This has to be the only realistic romantic flick I've seen, ever...and very well made to, I love the main characters.
111
Good Bye, Lenin (2004,  R)
Good Bye, Lenin
Never was a fan of German films because many seemed rather cold for my taste but this one had something special about it, the length a boy will go to for the love of his mom and his beliefs....sweet and educational.
