What is the best movie ever?

I really liked both The Truman Show and Eternal Sunshine... But neither of them would ever make it near my best movies of all time list.

Robocop

Predator 🙂

Shame on you. 😐

"L.A. Confidential" (1997)

this one is currently my favorite and tops the list of the ones i think are the best. it has a great plot, cast, characters, sets, and director. lots of great twists to the plot. the director and his crew did a great job with the sets for that time period. also, i think editing was good. scenes didn't drag. dialogue and characters were always fascinating to watch and evolve. out of the neo-noirs i like, this one is the best. next would be "seven" or "zodiac" i think... well, i'm really into noirs/crime dramas and that time period, 1930's-1950's detective stories. hope to find more great ones like "l.a. confidential"! oh yeah, i've been reading the book by james ellroy. good so far. anyways...

What is the best Movie ever?

wow...i wonder if anyone else has ever thought of this thread..

I believe the answer you are looking for is Norbit.

Merged. Please use the search function when making new threads, steebo.

The Dark Knight(2008) or The Godfather(1972)

Ugh...

Howard the Duck

depends what mood I´m in.

But Pulp Fiction is well up there.

According to a top 100 list I saw on TV, it was Citizen Kane, but The Godfather was ranked #2. Personally, I didn't care much for Citizen Kane.

That's a tough question to answer because there are a bunch of great movies.

Scarface

Amadeus.

Although I have the director's cut and it's about four and half hours long, if you've got the stamina for a movie with a bit of opera and no action that's that long, then it just feels so satisfying at the end.

... and I just stepped right into a "that's what she said" joke.

Can we really say there is a best movie ever? There are different genres with different feels and different styles & tones, so I think a best movie ever is impossible to name, at least that's my view.

These are the big 6:

The Prestige
Memento
Mulholland Dr.
Blade Runner
2001: A Space Odyssey
A Clockwork Orange
