always wanted to discuss my top five films.see what you all think.

1 THE INSIDER (1999)michael mann film
2 BLADE RUNNER (1982)
3 SE7EN
4 COLLATERAL
5. THE WHALE RIDER

i know number five is abit out there but its got heart on a very low budget.plus lisa gerrard music on it is amazing.

Some very odd choices there - though all, of course, critically acclaimed. My own list is rather more traditional:

1. Casablanca (it's got everything - drama, romance, comedy, action)
2. Lord of the Rings (I'm counting it as a single 12-hour film - again, it's got everything)
3. Aliens (it just does everything perfectly, and I never get tired of it)
4. Night of the Hunter (Charles Laughton's belatedly acclaimed serial killer thriller - "post-expressionistic noir", apparently)
5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail (forget all the obnoxiously over-quoted lines and just quote the less-quoted and equally tear-inducingly funny lines)

I should give an honorary mention to the Evil Dead trilogy, since I've watched it about nine billion times.
