| Godfather: Part II, The | 1974 | 99 | 1 | | | Casablanca | 1942 | 98 | 2 | - A classic. Everyone should watch this movie at some point in their life. It's not funny, it's not action-packed, but it's deep & a classic. | | Forrest Gump | 1994 | 98 | 2 | - A classic movie with an all-time classic actor about one of the all-time classic characters in any movie. | | Godfather, The | 1972 | 98 | 2 | | | Departed, The | 2006 | 97 | 5 | - Scorsese nailed it with this Boston gangster movie about Billy Costigan who grew up in a crooked family & he becomes a cop, while Colin Sullivan grows up in a good family and becomes a cop, but works for the local mob boss Frank Costello. Costigan goes undercover to take down Costello, while Sullivan is in IA working secretively for Costello. It's a grossly intense game of cat & mouse on both sides. It is brilliantly written, superbly acted by a superstar cast & the man that made the film a classic is Martin Scorsese. One of my all-time favorites. | | Gladiator | 2000 | 96 | 6 | | | Braveheart | 1995 | 95 | 7 | - One of the best acting/directing jobs ever. Mel Gibson put everything into this film and it shows. The story of William Wallace isn't one that you walk smiling about, but you respect and love. Superb film. | | Amadeus | 1984 | 90 | 8 | - It's a historic look at the greatest musical mind of all-time and the dark forces trying to sabotage the great Mozart. | | Crash | 2004 | 90 | 8 | | | Dances with Wolves | 1990 | 90 | 8 | | | Deer Hunter, The | 1978 | 85 | 11 | - A great acting job by DeNiro, Chris Walken & Meryl Streep in one of the most depressing movies of all-time. | | A Beautiful Mind | 2001 | 84 | 12 | | | American Beauty | 1999 | 81 | 13 | |
