| Braveheart | 1995 | 95 | 1 | (full review) | | Lord of the Rings: Return of the King | 2003 | 95 | 1 | (full review) | | Dances with Wolves | 1990 | 90 | 3 | (full review) | | English Patient, The | 1996 | 90 | 3 | (full review) | | Gladiator | 2000 | 90 | 3 | (full review) - Gladiator may not be as perfect as some may claim, but Ridley Scott’s inspired direction keeps this well-acted, beautifully shot, and tremendously entertaining epic, on its toes by never once diving into cheesy or lame territory. | | Lord of the Rings: Two Towers | 2002 | 90 | 3 | (full review) - The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is the second-installment that hits, and hits hard with enough emotions, action, and characters running through, that you feel like you have a full grip and feel of this story, what’s happening in it, and what’s to come of it in it’s grand, epic finale. Return of the King, here I come! | | Atonement | 2007 | 85 | 7 | (full review) | | Glory | 1989 | 85 | 7 | (full review) | | Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring | 2001 | 85 | 7 | (full review) | | 300 | 2006 | 80 | 10 | (full review) - Not to be taken too seriously, 300 is a more of an orgy of violence and gore, rather than an actual history document, but will entertain the hell out of all dudes, as well as provide plenty and I do mean plenty of beautiful visuals. | | Cloud Atlas | 2012 | 80 | 10 | (full review) - Cloud Atlas is a very, very long movie that’s filled with plenty of stories, plenty of characters, and plenty of ambitions that it’s set for itself, but is also a very entertaining and beautiful movie to watch as it never really leaves you bored when it’s all over. It may not be the most emotionally-impacting viewing-experience you’ll have this year, but it’s a great watch that will probably take-up half of your day. But, in a good way at least. | | Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, The | 2014 | 80 | 10 | (full review) | | Last Samurai, The | 2003 | 80 | 10 | (full review) | | Noah | 2014 | 80 | 10 | (full review) | | Apocalypto | 2006 | 75 | 15 | (full review) | | Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The (2012) | 2012 | 75 | 15 | (full review) - Though Jackson does tread in familiar-territory that we all know what to expect and get out of an experience like his return to Middle Earth, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is still fun and entertaining to watch, even if the whole idea of being filmed in 48fps can get a bit tiresome over time. After awhile, you do begin to get used to it but in my opinion, to avoid any distractions to the human-eye whatsoever, just give this baby a whirl in 3D, or regular 2D, especially if you want to save some moolah. | | Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, The (2013) | 2013 | 75 | 15 | (full review) | | Gangs of New York | 2002 | 70 | 18 | (full review) | | Immortals | 2011 | 65 | 19 | (full review) - Visionary director Tarsem Singh brings so many colorful, vibrant, beautiful, and larger-than-life sets to this film that it almost makes Immortals feel like some sort of dream filled with bloody and fun action, but also a lame script and long moments of boredom in between all of the slashing and killing. | | Australia | 2008 | 60 | 20 | (full review) | | Patriot, The | 2000 | 50 | 21 | (full review) | | Pearl Harbor | 2001 | 50 | 21 | (full review) |
