22. City of God (2002) 8.6
23. Life Is Beautiful (1997) 8.6
28. Spirited Away (2001) 8.5
30. Parasite (2019) 8.5
33. The Pianist (2002) 8.5
39. Modern Times (1936) 8.5

There's 6 from the Top 40 I've yet to see, I don’t care for animation, Chaplin or films by Polanski so I doubt I'll ever see them, but City of God is one film I want to see.

12 Angry Men (1957) 9.0

Inception (2010) 8.8 I watched the first 30 minutes of this on Netflix, after I posted this...boring.

Watch the first 30 of Shawshank instead. 😉

If you ever watch The Matrix, don't bother with the sequels.

Wow that's impressive! I grew to like Dune over the years, I've seen it numerous times since release.

I've seen it and found it boring, but it might be one of those movies that improves on a second viewing.

Inception. I've tried watching it twice. Not a fan of Leo. Or the rest of the cast. Or Nolan, for that matter.

Shawshank Redemption

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 3 years ago

I'm beginning to think the popularity of this movie is a myth!

[–] actionkamen (23176) 3 years ago

Yeah, doesn't matter tho' Prometheus is better anyway.
