DEmeant0r

Sorry if there's already a thread like this.

Mine are:

1.A Beautiful Mind
2.Cinema Paradiso
3.Matrix 1
4.Meet the parents
5.Memento

ObeyGiant

Can people posting on this thread please limit their answers to the required five? This means no long lists of "runners up" or "honourable mentions".

Otherwise, what's the point?

Bacchus

1:Godfather 2
2:Shawshank Redemption
3:Raging Bull
4:One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest
5:The Great Escape

I have many runners up and honourable mentions but guess I'm prohibited from mentioning them now. It's very hard picking a top 5, it's like choosing between your children.
I think the above is the closest to a top 5 that I have.

Ro: maaan!

1. Memento
2. American History X
3. Feris Bueller's Day Off
4. Mallrats
5. Go

...I think.
