Greatest movie of all time. imhfo

[TE]

The Beach.


Even after 10 years of being out, I can't find any other movie that tops it.


What an awesome underrated movie.

[DMX7]

I think you may be alone in that assessment.

[IronMexican]

I've never even heard of that movie. Had to google. Has a 6.3 on IMDB, so I doubt many agree.

Lol always listening to a critique to give you an idea of how good a movie is.

No way it tops this

oooh very nice. Goodfellas, Pulp Fiction, and The Godfather, greatest gangster movies ever

actually the public enemy and white heat are some of the best, but youre too sucked into pop culture to broaden your horizons.

[Chachachango]

Haven't watched that movie but i take die hard or the good, the bad, and the ugly.

[Muser]

Gotta go with the childhood favourite.

The Beach is not even Danny Boyle's best movie.

[TE]

The Beach is not even Danny Boyle's best movie.

okay okay, I'll give 127 hours a close second on the list of Boyle directed movies.


I guess watching a movie as adventurous and aesthetically pleasant as The Beach during my younger years is why I still won't rank anything higher.

Fucking awesome question of the movie. :toast

[monosylab1k]

Uh WHAT????

28 Days Later and Trainspotting say hi.

[monosylab1k]

Not even the sheer dominance of Leo can save The Beach from being a mediocre ass movie.

[DesignatedT]

lol fuck no

[Fpoonsie]

Braveheart, imho.

[Zelophehad]

Platoon ftw

[jack sommerset]

Lol always listening to a critique to give you an idea of how good a movie is.

I saw it, it sucked. Even Leo said it was a piss poor choice.

[Bender]

I've never even heard of that movie.
me neither.

PS: I'm ashamed to say I don't think I've ever seen goodfellas.

[Technique]

The Beach was really good for sure.

But, Shutter Island is on another level of film. Absolutely amazing.

[CubanSucks]

Braveheart, imho.

:tu

then Pulp Fiction, A Clockwork Orange, The Good Bad Ugly, and Fight Club

[ChuckD]

Not even the sheer dominance of Leo can save The Beach from being a mediocre ass movie.

I thought it was good, but it just lacked something that kept it from being great. The message was powerful, though: every Eden has it's serpent, and the serpent of The Beach was total selfishness.

[resistanze]

Goodfellas. That's all.

[lefty]

I think you may be alone in that assessment.

My second choice of best film of all times has to be Kingpin

[RGMCSE]

Mouse, I give you credit. Looks like the film may have some potential! You need to get those fuckers to give you some background on how they became to be holders of signs. Some of these people could be Harvard Grads, or former college athletes with all the potential in the world but they screwed their life on coke, whores and other vices. What if you discover the next big thing in one of these characters. What if one of them has a voice for radio?!?! Wouldn't that be something?!?! It's to bad you didn't hit up the rodeo on dollar day and film the Pillsbury dough boy. That guy would've made your movie tbh.

[MannyIsGod]

Uh WHAT????

28 Days Later and Trainspotting say hi.

I don't believe either is as good as Sunshine or Slum Dog.

[jjktkk]

Rocky.

[Strike]

I don't believe either is as good as Sunshine or Slum Dog.

Both, and about 9,000 other movies are better than Sunshine or Slumdog.

The Beach is a decent movie but it doesn't hold a candle to...

The Godfather Part II
North By Northwest
Jaws
Alien
Clockwork Orange
The Empire Strikes Back
Scarface
Pulp Fiction
A Clockwork Orange
Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas
Fight Club
The Big Lebowski
American Graffiti
Sin City
Raiders Of The Lost Ark
Platoon

...I'm starting to get a little bored listing some of the many movies that are better.

[monosylab1k]

I don't believe either is as good as Sunshine or Slum Dog.

Sunshine was terrific until it became a slasher horror movie halfway through, and Slumdog is one of Boyle's worst movies.

Its a good thing Danny Boyle didn't direct 9000 other movies.

[ALVAREZ6]

Slumdog def. overrated as hell.

[MannyIsGod]

I loved it.

[Muser]

Fuck yeah Trainspotting was awesome.

[baseline bum]

Gotta agree on Slumdog being massively overrated; what a stupid fairytale.

[CubanSucks]

Trainspotting ftw

:lmao

I love Fast Times, Breakfast Club, and Ferris Bueller (EXTREMELY overrated tho), but the 80s were awful in movies. Those 3 and Back to the Future are pretty much all the 80s has to offer and there all about fucking high school kids.

the 80s=rebellious hip teenagers and a SHIT TON of crappy action movies

You fail ... at life ... and at your assessment movies.

And you watched everyone.

It's easy for people to bad mouth an era after the fact. The 80s had no one to copy from like the 90s and today, The 80s left the 70s behind and created great movies still watched today.

You say it was an era of crappy high school kid movies, this coming from the generation that brought us this shit?

Movies like Valley Girl not only created their own style and unique scripts they propelled the careers of some of the most popular actors of today.

Besides Raiders, Aliens, andTerminator, they're all the definition of average action movies. It's like you were trying to prove my point

btw, I've got no problem saying the past 11 years in movies has been shit for the most part


and E.T. is an overrated kids movie

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Platoon, Once Upon a Time in America, Blade Runner.

Since you were talking about all genres, add in a few like Raging Bull, Ran, Das Boot, etc

But once you get past all those, then you do have a point.

the 80s wasn't my favorite decade... for anything. There were some classic movies from then though.

Body Heat was great.

edit: looks like mouse's lists include pornos.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

I couldn't remember if CaddyShack and Airplane came out in the late 70s or early 80s. Add those to my list.

EDIT: Forgot about Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Damn.

[mouse]

faces of Death Alone trumps all other non 80s genre.

I am not here to say 80s movies rule all movies. I am saying you can't come in here and bad mouth a decade before you after the fact. The earlier decades in movies didn't have laptops and bad ass 3D software like they do today.

I wouldn't allow anyone from the 80s to bad mouth the 60s. It's like Barry Bonds saying he can kick Babe Ruth's ass. Only an idiot would try to compare one generation to the next and not know how to be fair in his or her's opinions. I am sure Mike Tyson can kick Jack Dempsey's ass and Eddie Van Halen can kick Buddy Holly's ass in a guitar solo.


It's like when young kids say 70s Music and classic rock sucks when the artist of the 90s and today say it was bands like Aero Smith and Judas priest and others who inspired them.

If you can't comprehend any of this then your mental capability is weak and frankly there is really no need to address this issue any further.

[slayermin]

I liked the Beach. Trainspotting is in my top ten of all time. I also liked Shallow Grave. He did a great job with that one.

I didn't really care for Slumdog. Mira Nair's Salaam Bombay! is the best movie about India I have ever seen.

[Spurtacular]

Nobody nominating the new Star Wars?

[RD2191]

No Country for Old Men

[FrostKing]

I've only seen ' the Beach' once and not sure it was start to finish but yah quality enough to leave imprint in my memory

Don't know about overall best movie, but "Superbad" is the best comedy of all-time, imho.

Fair point. I just find Superbad more witty, funny and relatable. Also, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill >>>> anything American Pie has to offer in terms of acting.

Yea, Jonas What's His Face's character was derrivative and second rate AF. The McLovin character had its moments.

The movie on the whole probably wasn't the best comedy of its year let alone ever.

[Spurtacular]

Don't know about overall best movie, but "Superbad" is the best comedy of all-time, imho.

'Animal House', 'Porky's', etc. sh** on Super Bad.

'Super Bad' below the likes of 'Van Wilder' and 'Euro Trip', tbh.

[DAF86]

Euro trip :lmao:lmao:lmao

You called Superbad the Greatest comedy of all-time. You've nary room.

[Chucho]

GOAT comedy of all time is Big Lebowski. Blazing Saddles is definitely up there as are a few other contenders.

SuperBad isn't even the best comedy of it's decade, Old School jizzes all over SuperBad. Actually, not too many Ferrell flicks that don't crush Superbad from that same time period. Talladega Nights definitely does.

[DAF86]

You called Superbad the Greatest comedy of all-time. You've nary room.

Superbad is great, Eurotrip is dumb as fuck. If you want I can bring you Rotten Tomatoes ratings. The only semi-objective measure of Quality.

[Bynumite]

I love Training Day. Denzel was in the zone in the 00's with Training Day, Man on Fire and American Gangster.

[Bynumite]

40 year old virgin is the greatest comedy of all time :lol Probably not but i still get a good laugh like it's my first time watching it.

[spurraider21]

eurotrip is fantastic, i think its in the 2nd tier. but i crack up every time i watch it.

superbad is tier 1. 40 year old virgin, wedding crashers also up there among "recent" flicks. american pie belongs in that category too.

my cousin vinny is GOAT among comedies

overall i'd go with shawshank redemption though

[spurraider21]

man, im really not that big a ferrell fan. other than anchorman and the other guys (extremely underrated comedy), i wouldn't put any of his flicks in the same tier as superbad. he's great in wedding crashers but thats a very limited role

[gambit1990]

The Beach.


Even after 10 years of being out, I can't find any other movie that tops it.


What an awesome underrated movie.
wtf :lol

saw that movie when i was a kid... thought it was cool but you haven't seen anything that tops that? :lmao

pretty much agree.

[Spurminator]

Back to the Future

I've seen it a hundred times but didn't come to this conclusion until watching it a couple months ago, when I was struck by just how perfect it is. The casting is perfect, the score is one of the best of all time, the story is deceptively complex for a mainstream movie if you think about it. Just an absolute masterpiece of cinema that manages to have wide appeal without being dumbed down in any way.

[gambit1990]

superbad > animal house, office space, 40 year old virgin

only movie i can recall that made me laugh as much as superbad is that's my boy. fuck the trailer and don't watch clips on YT. just watch the movie and you'll laugh your ass off.

SuperBad just wasnt funny to me. Only comedy more underwhelming to me was The Hangover. And yeah, some Ferrell stuff I didnt really like such as Blades of Glory and the basketball one. But Old School, Anchorman, Talladega Nights are all better than SuperBad. Cera sucks. Fat Jonah Hill plays a real good try-too-hard but nothing special, imo.

[Herdonne]

I liked Chernobyl fro HBO, I think it is one of the best TV shows. Watched it when I was in my Athens real estate here (https://tranio.com/greece/attica/athens/) in one day all episodes. Really amazing story line and actors.

This 100x. I'm a Cohen fanboy to the extreme, but No Country for Old Men doesn't surpass Lebowski, Raising Arizona or Fargo. That's pound for pound, genre for genre. Not even sure I can put it over Oh Brother, Where art Thou? honestly.

Easily my top sports movie of all time.

Hoosiers, The Natural, Slap Shot, Field Of Dreams, Rocky, Miracle, Major League, Tin Cup, A League Of Their Own, Littler Giants Sandlot, Rudy, Caddy Shack, Cool Runnings, Eight Men Out, The Replacements, Lady Bugs, Bend It Like Beckham, Semi Pro are all better.

I would put it ahead of White Men Can't Jump, Any Given Sunday, Jerry McGuire, The Mighty Ducks, Space Jam, Blue Chips, He Got Game, Remember The Titans, The Blind Side, and The Bad News Bears.

Haven't seen Friday Night Lights or Moneyball. I knew each situation in real life and didn't want to watch Hollywood glorify the fuck out of them.

I haven't seen Raging Bull; some people say that's the best sports movie. There's some others I haven't seen that could be decent.

Some of those I could move up or down; just really quickly though.

Remember the Titans is in the top 10.

[spurraider21]

:lmao The barbecuer too, lashing out at his wife.
IM NOT HUNGRY

[Spurtacular]

Remember the Titans is in the top 10.

Maybe. I remember liking it; not sure I watched the entire thing or not; it just didn't strongly resonate with me. But I didn't think it was a bad movie or anything.

[Spurtacular]

BTW, Animal House is undisputed GOAT comedy.

[spurraider21]

hmm, as far as sports movies my tier 1 is probably miracle, remember the titans, white men cant jump, major league

i also really enjoy jerry maguire, caddy shack, slap shot, the replacements.

i also dont hate sandler's longest yard. the cast had great chemistry tbh

blind side was an ok first watch but probably way too boring for a rewatch. i always felt the natural and field of dreams were just boring for my taste

I hated Rocky. Every boxing movie has ridiculous unrealistic fights that make Gatti-Ward I look like Mayweather vs Mayweather.

Just honoring its legacy, TBH, I'd rather watch Bull Durham for the second or third time than Rocky(s) for the umpteenth time.

Yea, I think they did a bad job of simulating the boxing with no blocking.

[Spurtacular]

Happy Gilmore technically a sports movie; if so, probably top 15.

[Spurminator]

Gotta disagree, 25 year-old Shannon Elizabeth is still pretty fucking hot.

Well sure but the beauty of the internet is you don't have to suffer through a mediocre 90 minutes of comedy for a minute-long titty scene.

[Spurminator]

really? i've watched 1 and 2 in the last year... still think they're both pretty great

Yikes, 2?

We're just gonna have to agree to disagree.

[Spurtacular]

Hates The Natural and NCFOM, but questions other people’s taste in movies :lmao

You probably want to rewrite that; but if I have to guess what you're trying to say, No Country For Old Men doesn't hold a candle to The Natural.

[Spurtacular]

GOAT sports movie is Moneyball tbh

Moneyball didn't even get a ring in real life. My 02 Angels made sure of that.

[Spurtacular]

Not even remotely what I said, but you’re retarded so it’s fine.

Not what you said; I'm saying it.

[spurraider21]

i dont question them. i just disagree with them.

i dont hate NCFOM. it wasnt something i had to force myself to sit through or anything like that. i just dont think it was great or memorable.

you do you, man

[Spurminator]

It's not a movie for homos like you, tbh.

The main plot of the movie is the school jock falling in love with a 5 after joining Glee Club.

Homo who?

[Spurtacular]

Okay

This is the real Money Ball, son.

The villain Bonds even goes away with no ring.

[spurraider21]

yeah moneyball is a good one too. that early scene with all the scouts around the table was pretty great.

but imo the movie minimized billy beane quite a bit. he just did whatever the fat kid told him to do the entire way. besides the trade deadline scene.

[spurraider21]

You have shitty taste in movies :tu

questioning my taste as i'm agreeing with derp on quite a few of these :lol... watched no country for old men for the first time a couple of years ago and came away wondering why it got so much acclaim/hype at the time

there will be blood came out around the same time and is a much much better movie

There Will be blood had a plot and nuance. It wasn't just some fapper's fantasy killings.

NCFOM agitates people because it's a noir in western clothing. I don't see how people could get upset after the subversion precedent had been set years before by McCabe and Mrs. Miller and Unforgiven, now it's just modern day.

The Natural copped out by not subverting expectations like the novel did, but it was the right move in the Reagan era.

Lots of great films mentioned here. I keep coming back to Lone Star. After all this time, I still can't think of any way that $3 million movie could be improved.

I couldn't get into Menace II Society. Great soundtrack, but that movie always struck me as how white people would do a minstrel show hood movie with so many 1D caricatures. I liked Boyz N the Hood so much more where Dough felt like a real person, like that one kid you knew back in school who was a fuck-up because his mom loved the son from another father more.

[spurraider21]

inglourious basterds is tarintino's best imo (followed by django, then pulp fiction). it probably winds up in my top 10 as well.

[spurraider21]

You can acknowledge Citizen Kane is a superior film while enjoying Step Brothers more, Philo.
i get what you're saying, but that doesn't really seem like this thread is going for that. otherwise id probably dump a bunch of marvel movies in my top 10 as well :lol

speaking of which, dark knight is another lowkey candidate

I've seen it a hundred times but didn't come to this conclusion until watching it a couple months ago, when I was struck by just how perfect it is. The casting is perfect, the score is one of the best of all time, the story is deceptively complex for a mainstream movie if you think about it. Just an absolute masterpiece of cinema that manages to have wide appeal without being dumbed down in any way.

In the same vein, not the best movie of all time, but also a perfect movie imo, The Karate Kid.

Casablanca
Cool Hand Luke
Road House
Crossroads
On the Waterfront
The Seachers
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
Remember the Titans

Citizan Kane is ok but probably the most overrated movie of all time.

Really hard to pinpoint the greatest movie because of the different genres.

BUT......The Godfather.....gets my vote.

Why "Road House," Sir? I ain't trying to bust your balls, I'd sincerely like to hear your reasoning.

It's a fun movie and a bit of a guilty pleasure, but it doesn't belong on a list like that.

Fargo

Was so interesting for me in so many different ways. Its your basic Coen, start with a plan and things swing wildly out of control, but the things interwoven are great. The accents are what stick with many, but there are so many interesting interactions. The marriage between Marge and Norm is so typical, but lays bare a strong woman having to bring her big baby man along; But at the same time they are totally in love. Little things like this... Old HS crushes crushed in an absolutely baldly embarrassing manner because being polite is not enough... so much little human interplay stuffed into this movie.

Cannot be watched once.

Might have to split hairs on the re-watch value. I think I may have had the DVD and never watched it.

But :lol at the line(s) that comes right after this clip ends:

Rewatch for me because I saw it as a youngster and had no idea why I liked it so much.
An older person explained why he liked it and then I started learning why I liked it. Then Snowball because I missed so much. That same person would be fairly astounded if he asked me why I liked it now because I could not stop.

Just one example: How the father treats his son when he has to tell him what has happened to mom. This seemingly mild mannered, but incredibly desperate man, shows the most callous sense of humanity that overlaps with the basic generalization of the unflappable midwestern personality. I found it thoroughly disgusting. Then it’s, “ go practice your accordion” attitude and don’t bug me with your unnecessary emotions. I have more important things to ponder.

the random trucker on the CB... "squeeze his ass, son"

American Reunion was only faintly on my radar when it came out, so I didn't watch it.

I caught it on TBS on demand last night; it's definitely worthy of the franchise. Solid.

I didn't watch American Pie Naked Mile or whatever other presumably shameless attempts to capitalize. But everything I've seen with Stifler and the gang actually in it has been top shelf.
